Approach

General estimate only. Individual needs and health advice take priority.

How this estimate works

BonusBurn offers three planning presets: balanced is 30% protein, 40% carbohydrate and 30% fat; higher protein is 35%, 35% and 30%; lower carbohydrate is 35%, 25% and 40%. Protein and carbohydrate are converted at four calories per gram and fat at nine. These are convenient presets, not personalised dietary recommendations.

Common questions

Which macro split should I choose?

Balanced is a simple starting point. Higher protein may suit people prioritising satiety or strength training, while lower carbohydrate shifts more energy toward fat.

Do I need to track every meal?

No. Weekly consistency matters more than perfect daily numbers. Use the result as a guide if detailed tracking helps you.
