KoopCast
Balancing Macronutrients for Different Goals
The overall calorie amount can be broken down into specific macronutrients based on different goals. For general health and endurance training, a balanced intake of carbohydrates, protein, and fat is recommended. However, for weight loss, the focus shifts to maintaining lean muscle mass by increasing protein intake and reducing carbohydrates. Recommended distribution for weight loss is 25-30% protein, 40-50% carbohydrate, and 20-30% fat, compared to the distribution for an endurance athlete, which is 10-20% protein, 50-65% carbohydrate, and around 20% fat.
