Macro calculators provide an estimation based on formulas and personal data; they are a starting point that often requires adjustment based on your progress.

Popular and highly-rated apps include Macro Max (IIFYM), Cronometer, MyFitnessPal, and MacroFactor.

The most accurate calculators use validated models (like those adapted from NIH research) and factor in personal details like body fat percentage, activity level, and goals. They are still estimations.

In the mobile app, you generally find macro goals under “Goals” in the “Menu” or “More” page, then selecting “Calories, Carbs, Protein & Fat Goals.”

This refers to an online tool or app that calculates your personalized daily grams of protein, carbohydrates, and fat (macronutrients) to meet your fitness or weight goals.

Reddit users often recommend calculators from sites like IIFYM, Precision Nutrition, or specific apps like MacroFactor or Cronometer for detailed tracking.

This likely refers to a macro calculator tool promoted or used by fitness influencer Will Tennyson for his audience.

A macro calculator gives you the daily macro targets (grams of protein, carbs, fat), which you then use to build a meal plan with foods that hit those numbers.

This calculator is specifically designed to determine the macro split and total calories needed for a caloric surplus with adequate protein to support muscle hypertrophy (growth).

This calculator provides macro targets that adhere to the Ketogenic diet ratio (very low carb, high fat, moderate protein) to help the body achieve ketosis.

Many sites like Macros Inc or IIFYM offer free versions of their macro calculators; app free versions like MyFitnessPal also provide macro tracking features.
