What Is BMR and TDEE?

BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the number of calories your body needs just to function at rest. TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) adds your activity level on top of BMR to estimate your total daily calorie burn.

Calorie Formula (Mifflin-St Jeor)

Men
BMR = (10 × kg) + (6.25 × cm) − (5 × age) + 5
Women
BMR = (10 × kg) + (6.25 × cm) − (5 × age) − 161
TDEE
TDEE = BMR × Activity Multiplier

Using Your Results

  • To maintain your current weight, eat around your TDEE
  • To lose weight, eat roughly 300–500 calories below your TDEE
  • To gain weight, eat roughly 300–500 calories above your TDEE
