Frequently asked questions
How do I know I'm at maintenance?
Weekly average scale weight stays within ±0.5 kg over a month. Adjust by 100 kcal/week in either direction if the trend drifts.
Can I recomp on fewer calories?
If your intake is well below your maintenance, your weight will trend down and it becomes a cut. Your weekly weight trend tells you which is happening.
Is dairy fine daily?
Many people eat it daily. If you break out or feel bloated, switch to lactose-free milk and soy curd — the protein math still works.
Want targets worked out for you?
