Energy Balance and Macronutrient Partitioning
Sustainable body composition change requires understanding energy balance. A moderate deficit of 15% to 20% below Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) protects metabolic rate and lean muscle tissue while losing fat.
For muscle hypertrophy and bulking, a controlled surplus of 250 to 500 kcal/day alongside 1.6 to 2.2 g/kg of dietary protein optimizes muscular protein synthesis without accelerating adipose storage.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many calories should I eat to lose weight safely?
A moderate deficit of 500 kcal per day below your TDEE yields approximately 0.45 to 0.5 kg (1 lb) of fat loss per week while staying well above physiological minimum floors.
How much protein do active individuals need?
The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) recommends 1.6 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight for individuals engaged in regular resistance and endurance training.
