How do you set macros for a client?

Set protein first, then fat, then fill the rest of the calories with carbs. Get the calories from a starting estimate (resting energy times an activity factor, then a goal percentage), treat it as a first guess and judge changes on two to three weeks of weekly averages. This is general information, not medical advice: a client who is pregnant or breastfeeding, has a medical condition, takes a medication that affects diet, has a history of disordered eating, is under 18 or is cutting weight for a weight class gets targets from a doctor or a registered dietitian.
