What are the correct percentages?

Sonya Parker · #1 July 5th, 2005, 10:05 AM

What are the Fat vs Carbs vs Protein percentages that are ideal for Induction. I am aware of the 20g Carb limit. But was more curious about the fat versus protein %s . I use Fitday to track my total calories and want to make sure I have it well distributed.
Thanks!

Hi Sonya,

This are the percentages (from one of the ADBB FAQ's):

During Induction, we kept our percentages around 65% fat:30% protein:5% carbs. During OWL, we begin to increase our carbs. By the time you reach Maintenance, your fat percentages are around 50%.

Hope that helps.

Here's the link to the sticky in this forum about Fitday, and it tells about the percentages.
