The trainer says that on free days you exclude the pre and after workout shake (total 90gr of protein powder - about 300 calories). The macros you listed are just for the first week. Has anyone done this routine and followed the diet? If I was to follow this diet it seems it's more of a bulking diet, as it's 700 calories above my maintenance which would make me gain 1.4 pounds a week. This is basically 700 calorific surplus compared to my maintenance TDEE and I haven't even hit carb requirements! Was planning on copying the listed meal for a day or two based on my macro needs but it is way above my Maintenance TDEE which at this weight is around 2000.Įntering everything just goes against what I believed during this healthy weightloss journey. I'm planning on following the nutritional plan to the T but I was wondering if my understanding of Macros is correct.ġ.5g of Protein per pound: 168 * 1.5 = 252gġ.5g of Carbs per pound =168 * 1.5g = 252g. I'm planning on following Shortcut to Shred workout after doing Reddits PPL for over a year.

I'm now trying to drop to around 155 since my height is 5ft 6. I went from 262->168 pounds in 11 months, and been weightlifting this entire time. So I'm switching from counting calories to counting macros for this workout specifically.
