You’ve mention this info while doing Q&A after your wkouts, but I don’t quite understand. My question is, should you
take in less calories than you burn? Example, if my daily calorie intake is supposed to be 1200, plus the “500” I burn, which equals 1700, then should I eat less than 1700 calories? Does this count for weight loss while trying to tone as well? Thanks so much!

Hi Kristin, I recommend plugging your info into the Precision Nutrition calculator. In general, weight loss happens when calorie output > caloric intake. Instead of focusing on how much you're burning calories, I would recommend tracking your meals over 3 days to get an average of what you're intake is and make sure you are hitting proteins.
