📐 About This Calculator

Your BMR is the energy your body burns at rest; TDEE multiplies it by an activity factor to estimate daily needs. Adjust up or down to gain or lose weight.

MIFFLIN-ST JEOR BMR: Men: 10·kg + 6.25·cm − 5·age + 5 Women: 10·kg + 6.25·cm − 5·age − 161 TDEE = BMR × activity factor Weight loss ≈ TDEE − 500 kcal/day (~0.5 kg/week)

Variable Definitions:

  • BMR = Basal metabolic rate (kcal/day at rest)
  • TDEE = Total daily energy expenditure

✅ Best used for:

  • Weight-loss and muscle-gain planning
  • Setting a daily calorie budget
  • Macro tracking

⚠️ Limitations:

  • Estimates only — real needs vary by body composition and metabolism
  • Not a substitute for professional advice

📖 How Daily Calories are Calculated

BMR vs TDEE

BMR is what you burn doing nothing; TDEE adds movement and exercise via an activity multiplier. TDEE is the number to eat around for maintenance.

Setting goals

A deficit of ~500 kcal/day loses about 0.5 kg per week; a similar surplus supports gradual gain. Extreme deficits are rarely sustainable.

Macronutrients

Protein and carbs give ~4 kcal/g, fat ~9 kcal/g. A common starting split is 30% protein, 40% carbs, 30% fat.
