1*(body wt/2.2)*24
Then I seem to remember somewhere a statement saying that it's not body weight but LBM.

Lets say I weigh 250 and my LBM is 197.
250/2.2=113.64*24=2727
197/2.2=89.55*24=2149
a difference of 600 cal.

Which is it - Body weight or Lean Body Mass?
I'm cutting so to me this is a biggie
