Depends on activity, but considering his current bodyfat level I think starting at 2000 would be reasonable as I suspect he’s pretty sedentary outside of lifting.

If he’s walking 10-15k steps a day, might be a different story.

Personally if I ate 1800 calories a day I would struggle to stay awake

I am walking around 10k steps per day, sometimes more as part of my new routine. Would you recommended more than 2000 in this case?

Thanks

10k steps is a good target for anyone daily IMO.

The suggestions for your calories are merely suggestions and you'll know what the right calories are if you are losing 1-2lbs per week.

much will depend on how accurately your calorie counting and tracking is on a consistent basis. Stick with a certain amount for 3 weeks minimum and adjust from there. Its a good idea to go slightly lower than you think to compensate. You can always raise calories after 3 weeks if you’re a bit low but you probably won’t be. If you’re too high you just wasted 3 weeks finding that out .

For what purpose? I mean you're asking if I would recommend x-calories, but you keep saying you want to 'recomp', which means you're not really losing weight. 2000 calories would cause weight loss.

Personally, I think you could lose plenty of weight eating like 2200 calories... just try it out and adjust as needed.

1800 cal whilst training 6 days a week sounds daunting, I already get quite hungry on 2200. I guess the reason I wanted to do a body recomp is so that I didn’t have to do a straight cut, but I’ll take this into consideration and plan accordingly.

It's good to establish a training pace with respect to how much energy you're consuming. There's numerous methods you can go about doing that in order to raise the bar more gradually and in surmounting fashion.
