How to Set Your Macros for Cutting, Maintenance, or Bulking

Your macronutrient split should reflect your current fitness goal. For cutting or fat loss, prioritise protein at 2.0 to 2.4 grams per kilogram of body weight to protect muscle, keep fat moderate at 0.8 to 1.2 grams per kilogram, and fill the remaining calories with carbohydrates. For maintenance, a balanced split of roughly 30 percent protein, 35 percent carbs, and 35 percent fat works well for most active people. For bulking or muscle gain, increase carbohydrates to fuel training and recovery while keeping protein at 1.6 to 2.0 grams per kilogram and fat at a minimum of 0.8 grams per kilogram. The exact ratios depend on your training style, food preferences, and how your body responds.

Macros and Body Types: Ectomorph, Mesomorph, Endomorph

While somatotype theory has limited scientific backing as a fixed classification, people do vary in how they process macronutrients. Those with naturally lean builds and fast metabolisms often benefit from higher carbohydrate intake to support energy and recovery. People who gain fat more easily may respond better to moderate carbohydrates and higher fat intake. Naturally athletic builds tend to do well with a balanced macro split. These are guidelines, not rigid rules. The best approach is to start with a reasonable split, track your results for two to four weeks, and adjust based on how your weight, energy, and performance change. Individual experimentation is more valuable than any body type label.
