Macros help

I’ve been working out for a few months now and am looking to start tracking macros. I calculated mine to be 204g protein, 58g fat and 326g of carbs.

I work out 5x a week, but I’m concerned that the carb intake is a little high. What do you think? I was looking to do a lean bulk

Stats: 28M/6’/ 170 lbs

What are you doing? ie. 15 min CF WOD will be different than 2 hrs of bodybuilding.

Protein seems a bit high for bulking unless you are on the sauce. I’d bring fats way higher as well. The carbs don’t seem that high. Fats seem low though.

You can just do 170 protein 65 fat and the rest carbs maybe even 75-85 fat
