So, how many grams of carbohydrates is that exactly? This is easy to determine when we know that 1 gram of carbohydrates equals 4 calories. Letâs say you need to consume 3,000 calories per day to build muscle. If carbohydrates make up 50% of your diet, you will need to consume 1,500 calories worth of carbohydrates.At 4 calories per gram, 1,500 divided by 4 would equal about 375 grams of carbohydrates every day.Your own caloric intake will vary a lot based on your own personal goal and BMR.f you are bulking, you will need to consume between 300-500 calories above your maintenance level. If you are cutting, this number will be 300-500 calories below your maintenance level. You can determine your maintenance level by reading my post on how many calories to build muscle.
