After having used the various calculators available to calculate what my daily intake should be and getting varied answers, I was hoping someone could give me some better guidance. Currently 20 years old, 93 KG, 6 feet tall. My weekly exercise consists of lifting 3x per week, and 2-3 days of LISS cardio for 45 min, about 600 calories burned per session. I also do a good bit of walking to and from school, store, etc. Anyone have any idea of how many calories I should be eating for a cut? Thanks.:)

Start high, maybe around 3000. Then work down when you need to :)

Everyone's different so there's really no cookie cutter way to go about assessing where your calories should be. That being said, at your height, weight, age, and activity level, I would say that 2500ish calories a day seems like it's in the ballpark. I would use that as a starting point and adjust accordingly by how the scale moves and your measurements change. :)

2200-2400 then take a look every two weeks to see if you need change.:tu:
