I have made articles on science behind weight loss, supplements, training, and many more. But one of the most asked questions I am getting is how to make the perfect diet plan – people don’t want to put any thought into the how’s and why of fat loss, they want a diet.
So, here is a sample diet plan that fits anyone. This diet plan provides approximately 2300-2400 calories, 45% carbs, 35% protein, and 20% fat.
Also note, this sample diet is made for a 189 cm, 28-year-old, 200 lb (90kg) male. If those are not your specs, you have to tweak the calories to meet your specific needs.
