Is Daizu suited to contest prep?

Daizu calibrates menus to amateur sport goals. For bodybuilding contest prep, where every gram matters in the final phase, a nutrition coach remains more precise. Daizu stays useful in the off-season and outside prep.

How much protein does Daizu target on a cut?

By default, 1.6 to 2.2 g per kg of body weight depending on the goal, within the range recommended by recent scientific reviews (Helms et al.). You can adjust the target manually if your coach gives you a different value.

Is the calorie calculation precise enough for a bulk?

For Daizu dishes, accuracy matches the recipes (calculations from weighed ingredients). For the photo scan, the margin is ±15–20%. Enough for an amateur athlete; add a scale for competitive prep.

Daizu for athletes

Daizu automatically calibrates your nutrition program to your athletic calorie target and macro split (bulking, cutting, or maintenance), with protein intake preserved. Off-plan meals (a night out, a restaurant) are logged from a photo in 3 seconds — far more sustainable than a MyFitnessPal diary across a whole prep.

The real friction of amateur training

Cooking to hit 1.8 g/kg of protein every day takes planning that “I’ll improvise tonight” never provides. Three grilled-chicken meals a week and a Sunday prep session: that is the real alternative to cooking burnout.

Manual calorie counting during a cut is time-consuming and demotivating. Logging every ingredient in MyFitnessPal after every meal is always abandoned by week 6. A photo is more sustainable.

Off-plan meals (a birthday, a restaurant, a family outing) should not break the program. Without a way to log them and get back on track quickly, one slip becomes the start of the end.

What Daizu does for you

You set your goal (loss, cut, maintenance, gain, sport, or healthy eating) and your activity level, and Daizu calibrates the nutrition program to the matching calorie target with protein preserved (≥ 1.6 g/kg on a cut). Portions are precise, not approximate.

For inevitable off-plan meals, the photo scan covers it in 3 seconds: Daizu estimates the dish’s calories and adds them to the day’s total. You can regenerate the meals that follow to stay close to the weekly target.

The shopping list is sorted by aisle and includes exact volumes for the week — no more running out of protein on Wednesday night.
