I honestly don't know, but I seem to remember seeing this ratio (40% carbs, 30% fat, 30% protein) a couple of places, so that's what I try to hit. I really don't know if that's right or not.

Here is some good info on nutrition, especially how it affects your workout, good fat vs. bad fat, etc.

Complete Nutrition Guide for Macronutrients and Vitamins

EDIT: OK, this page recommends 50-30-20
