Calorie Calculator

Free Fat Loss Calorie Calculator

This calorie calculator calculates the optimal calorie intake and macro-nutrient values to lose fat or gain muscle. It also generates a perfect customized meal for you with proper portion size to help you achieve your goal. The calculator is based on the Harris-Benedict equation. Remember that bulking up requires resistance training and good nutrition as shown here and that losing weight is as easy as 1-2-3:

  1. Exercise a bit more
  2. Eat a bit less, and
  3. Drink more water

If you want even more accurate results, consider using my “World’s Most Accurate Calorie Calculator“. Be warned that its more complicated to use, especially if you choose to do the calibration procedure.

Your scale weight can vary wildly from day to day based on the amount of salt you have consumed and other factors, don’t panic if your weight plummets one day then seems to be stalled or even increase the next – stay your course! If you do your eat as directed here and perform the amount of exercise you have set in step 5, then you will lose fat! To weigh yourself accurately, take your weight at the same time every day and measure your bodyfat. Measuring your bodyfat is very important to do if you are weight lifting in addition to losing fat because if you are gaining muscle and losing fat at the same time, the scale alone wont indicate your progress.

Some of you want to gain muscle mass as fast as possible and are wondering why there are not options in step 6 to let you eat even more calories than the “clean bulk”. In my opinion “dirty bulking” is not only unhealthy but does not allow you to add muscle any faster. Despite what popular programs like SS (Starting Strength) recommend, crazy excess of calories results in fat storage, not muscle gain. To see how fast can you add muscle, check out my muscle gain prediction calculator.

Like everything on scoobyswork.shop, this calculator is completely free. Lots of websites have calorie calculators that you have to pay to use but my free calculator here is even better! If this is not the best calorie calculator you have ever used, please contact me via facebook and let me know how I can make it the best calorie calculator anywhere on the internet – free or not! My goal is to provide information so that the poorest teen can get the information they need to build a great physique. The information available on this website for free is just as good as all those expensive books, just not quite as polished – but its free! :)
