I'm a 64-year-old woman, 5'6" tall, 136 lbs, with 26.7% body fat and 42.7% muscle. I've been strength training off and on all my adult life, mostly on now, with heavy weights, 4 times a week, plus daily walks and half-mile runs twice a week. I track macros, aiming for 1200 to 1300 calories per day, 130 grams of protein, under 50 grams of fat, and under 100 grams of carbs (less on recovery days). My goal is to get to 25% body fat and ultimately increase muscle mass. I feel strong, have energy, and sleep well. I'm on HRT. I am maintaining muscle and slowly gaining weight while also losing body fat at a rate of less than a pound a week. I'm super focused, but this pace isn't sustainable, and it will take me another 6 months to reach my goal. Any suggestions?
As a 48-year-old female who is consistently strength training, how much fat in grams per day should I eat to be healthy?
I'm in probably the mid-20s in body fat percentage. I'm a 31-year-old guy. I don't want to do a cut; I just want to live a healthy lifestyle. My stress isn't crazy or anything; I just don't have a ton of time, with work being 8-10 hours daily (desk job). If I focus on eating whole foods (with a supplemental protein shake or something), walking 8k-10k steps, and doing MAPS 15 and MAPS 15 Performance, will I naturally get down into the teens for body fat percentage, which is my ultimate goal?
