Ah okay. If the commands already exist elsewhere and are something you want to re-use then what I'd then personally do is convert them into mappings or Vimscript functions that use :normal. There's no obvious benefit to recording macros if you already have the commands set up. If you do try using macros in the future, then consider using :set lazyredraw to improve their speed.
