Question 1

How does Training Depot calculate daily calorie and macronutrient targets?

Accepted Answer

Training Depot calculates Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) using the scientifically validated Mifflin-St Jeor equation based on age, gender, height, and weight. It applies Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) activity multipliers ranging from Sedentary (1.2) to Very Active (1.725), and adjusts for target caloric deficits or surpluses (-500 kcal/day for weight loss, maintenance, or +300 kcal/day for lean muscle gain) paired with balanced protein, carbohydrate, and fat macronutrient distributions.

Question 2

How does the AI nutrition label and meal photo scanner work?

Accepted Answer

Users snap a photo of any packaged food Nutrition Facts label or whole meal. Training Depot uses Gemini multimodal computer vision OCR to extract calories, protein, carbohydrates, fat, dietary fiber, and sodium. Caloric accuracy is verified against the 4-4-9 macronutrient formula: (Protein x 4) + (Carbs x 4) + (Fat x 9).

Question 3

What workout splits and equipment options does the AI workout generator support?

Accepted Answer

The workout generator builds personalized training regimens across Push/Pull/Legs (PPL), Upper/Lower, and Full Body splits. Exercises are programmatically customized to the user's available equipment: Bodyweight, Dumbbells Only, Resistance Bands, or a Full Commercial Gym.

Question 4

Does Training Depot recommend dietary supplements, pills, or medications?
