Exercise Question: Caloric Intake: Men's or Women's?

Apr 20, 2012 12:51

Hi.  I'm about to start the Insanity Workout, and I'm wondering if I should follow the guide for men's caloric intake, or for women's.

I'm 5"9", 200 lbs, and pretty meaty and strong.  I'm looking to lose 20-30 lbs and get in better shape, but there's a big difference in the suggested calories for men and for women.  I regularly take in about 2000 calories a day, exercise 30-40 minutes six days a week, and have maintained this weight (give or take 10 lbs) for years now.

I looked through the tags, but didn't see anything.  Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jack
