Kcal question for X

[duckbutter]

when figuring daily requirements is there a specific number you'd multiply a person LBM or BW. how woould these number shange for woman if at all. im trying to really dial in our diets even more so. thanks

for bulking, 18-20kcals x total bodyweight

for cutting, 10-12kcals x total bodyweight

and of course for different diet methods, these numbers can change, i.e. fat-fast, CKD, ACD etc...

timing/rotation/manipulation or whatever else you wanna label it is vital.

As said beforehand, depending on the diet your are trying to do. Also, the general statements you hear for men (weight x 12) do not usually apply to all women. I would suggest using her BW as a starting point, but the dietary requirements will, again, depend on goals and type of diet.

basicly we are both trying to maintain bodyweight but change our composition, not really bulking and not really cutting...does that make sense?

If it's for a woman, than her body comp is an issue, what are her stats and experience is fitness?

If you want her to maintain, she would be fine trying something like w x 13+/- and seeing how it works , if too little add more cal if too much take away some. Really depends on how she responds to it.
