How the Body Recomposition Calculator Works
Body recomposition is building muscle and losing fat simultaneously. It works through calorie cycling: a slight surplus on training days to build muscle, and a slight deficit on rest days to burn fat.
- 1
Calculate TDEE
Input your maintenance calories
- 2
Set Training Days
Specify the number of weight training days weekly
- 3
Calculate Calories
The tool calculates calories for training and rest days
Use Cases
Beginners
Beginners can build muscle and burn fat more easily
Returning to Training
Those who stopped training for a while benefit from recomposition
Those Who Don't Want to Bulk
For those who want to improve body composition without weight gain
Tips
- 1

- 4
Sleep and recovery are essential for success
Common Mistakes
Expecting quick results like bulking or cutting
Not eating enough protein
Too much cardio and neglecting weights
Impatience and switching between approaches
