Fat: .5 grams x lbs of lean mass
Carbs: < 60 grams per day with at least 25 coming from fiber.
Off Season:

For me:
Fat loss:
1.5g/lb protein with 40% fat, <40g carbs, carb meal or carb day every 7th day.
Muscle gain:
2-2.25g/lb protein with around 50% fat depending on energy needs, <50g carbs
PWO carbs depending on volume, and carb day every 5th day or so.
