Ok, don't flame me for this people. I'm asking on behalf of a friend, but these questions don't require her to sign up and ask for herself. I will provide all the relevant info you need. If there is more that I cannot provide, then I will ask her to sign up to EF.
Anyway, my friend (a woman) is now kinda in the process of structuring her diet. She already eats pretty clean, but she doesn't know much about the carb/protien/fat breakdown, or where her maintainence cals are at. I know what's good for a guy, but not for a woman. So how would the nutritional breakdown look for a woman trying to drop fat. She trains (cardio and weights) for atleast an hour every day. Also, what would you estimate her maintainence cals to be. I know it's hard to tell without experimenting with it for yourself, but there must be a general guidline to follow for a woman. Like what, 1500 cals or something?
Stats:
-5' 7"
-145
-estimated 15-20% BF (she doesn't know)
Goals:
-to drop some fat and stay lean on an easy diet. Not any hardcore keto shit or anything.
Main Questions:
1. what is a good protien/carb/fat breakdown for a woman
2. What would be her maintainence cals (roughly)
3. How far below her maintainence should she eat
God bless
