What goals does it state - is it telling you to eat at maintenance and therefore you are calculating your maintenance - or is it having you calculate a caloric deficit?
What are the assumed conditions for which it is recommending calories?
In TPBD it's an equation/multipliers and says that my maintenance cals are 1720 and on training days stay around 1420 and off days 1220.

In the NRL4W it's 1716 on off days, 1961 on active days (intervals) and 2206 on strenuous workouts (lifting). I guess I'll just go with a number in between the two and see how it goes. Maybe Cassandra could shed some light on this.
