I have decided to get a bit more specific on my diet.
I have been doing IF with low carbs.
I am 5' 10'' and 188 lbs. I figure if I drop 8 lbs I should tighten up pretty nicely.
I looked at this calculator.

I lift heavy 3 times a week and box 3 times a week.
So this is the multiplier I should be using, correct (see below)? My lifting sessions go over an hour and boxing does also. However, I can't always say I hit 90 minutes. Also, if my calcs are wrong, I would end up gaining weight if I was eating too much.
BMR x 1.725 for active individuals (exercising 6-7 days/week at moderate to high intensity (70-85% MHR) for 45-60 minutes/session)
ALA Question
Also, I know ALA is great if you are taking carbs. If I take ALA and I am not on carbs does it help accelerate fat loss at all? I googled a bit and people recommend ALA but I want to make sure that there is value taking ALA when not taking carbs.
Thanks so much.
