Activity Level with the Fitness Program Purchased

Question: I purchased MACROS 101 Workout Plan and am wondering what the multiplier will be if I follow the plan working out the recommended 6 days a week(4 lifting, 1 HIIT, 1 LIIT)...Would I use the 1.725 to multiply to my BMR? I've already figured out what my MACROS would be without working out, but I really want to incorporate working out this time to get stronger and more tone. I just want to make sure I'm using the correct multiplier. In the past, I tried working out at a low calorie range and became dizzy and exhausted, therefore giving up on working out all together. =( Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Answer: Yes, you could utilize the 1.725 multiplier with your BMR. You could also opt to use a number between 1.55 and 1.725. The biggest thing to remember is these are your starting macros and you may find that adjustments are needed based on the feedback from your body. 

If you are setting your macros using option #1, meaning you don't know your body fat percentage, I would suggest using a multiplier of 8.5 to average out the weight lifting days and the cardio days.
