About contest prep macros

Contest prep macros for bodybuilders needs macro awareness plus realistic calorie targets during cuts and gains. WhoBigger nutrition supports full meal logging or a streamlined daily deficit mode with science-backed calorie suggestions from Mifflin–St Jeor BMR, activity factor, and weekly weight goals.

Training-day and rest-day targets can differ while preserving your weekly average — useful when contest prep adds cardio but you still need fuel for leg day. Suggestions are educational guidance; you stay in control of adjustments.

Nutrition on WhoBigger shares the active program context with live workouts and physique contests, so contest prep macros is part of the same prep story you show voters online.

How WhoBigger delivers this

Nutrition in Coach supports two rhythms: Full mode for detailed food logs by day, and Deficit mode when you prefer hitting calorie targets instead of listing every meal. Enter actual body weight each week (and a target when cutting or gaining) so the app knows where you are versus where you want to be.

  • In Profile, set sex and age (required for estimates).
  • Open Coach → Nutrition and record body weight for the current week.
  • Pick Full (food log) or Deficit (daily kcal targets).
  • In Deficit, read the Suggestion values per weekday; expand “How we estimated this” for the math.
