Ok..The nutrition part. I've looked over that part of the book and it say i should do maintenance for 4 weeks while i'm doing Phase 1
So i worked it out to this

1204-my resting metabolic rate
x1.4=1684 on rest days
1204x1.6=1926 on workout days.

I'm having trouble figuring out my ratio's for my carbs,fat,proteins
I went to this site
Carb, Protein, Fat Calorie Calculator
and put in my two numbers and came out with this
On my 1685 calories day
Carbs-168g
Fat-56g
Pro-126

1926
Carbs-192g
Fat-64g
Pro-144g

I'm very carb phobic..so that seems very high to me..did i miss something in the book about the macro's


Now on to plan my workouts
