C/p/f Quick Ratio Chart
I have created a chart with a few common C/P/F ratios for a number of diet calorie ranges that you might find useful as a quick reference.
I couldn't reduce it below the attachment size limits and keep the quality so had to attach as a zip.
All the best.

Hey Macca,
Great Chart!! It must have taken you forever!
Do these four break outs correspond with a certain method of training or
goal?
Good work!
Dave

Thanks guys. I thought it might come in handy.
I had a good look around the site and found those ratios to be the most widely talked about.
Personally I have used the 50/30/20 in the building phase and the 30/50/20 for the cutting phase with good results.
I believe the ratios that work for some may not for others, hence posting up the four I could find. There are plenty of other ratios, but these four give a good range.
I am sure there would be others more qualified on the forum to specifically answer how the ratios may benefit different training styles or body types.

Macca, nice on mate, rep+ from me aswell.....
The only reservation I would have is the CPF ration of 30/50/20, I would consider this would be too high protein intake for a low carb diet. The low carb diet is normally high fat, as you have to have an energy source, normally 70-80% fat, and could put protein intakes above recommened amounts...
