In this short video, the presenter argues that many women severely undereat, which prevents them from achieving a toned physique. She offers concrete nutritional formulas to address this: daily calories should equal the target body weight multiplied by 12; carbohydrate intake should be 30–70 g before workouts and 30–70 g after workouts; protein should be the target body weight multiplied by 0.8 g per day. She also promotes a free calorie‑and‑macro calculator linked in her bio for viewers who prefer not to do the math themselves.

Most women severely undereat, and it's why they never get that toned look. So here's how to fix it. For your calories, take your goal body weight, multiply it by 12, and that's how many daily calories you should be eating to lose fat and build muscle. Second, for your carbs, eat at least 30 to 70 grams pre-workout and 30 to 70 grams post-workout. This will help you fuel workouts, recover faster, and build more muscle. Then for your protein, take your goal body weight, multiply that by 0.8, and that's how many grams of protein you should be eating per day.
