BMR calculator
The calories your body burns at complete rest, before any movement or training.
Resting energy (Mifflin-St Jeor): 1 768 kcal a day
How it works
- Mifflin-St Jeor uses sex, age, height and weight and suits most people.
- Katch-McArdle uses lean mass instead, so it is more accurate for very lean or very muscular people when body fat is known.
- Multiply your BMR by an activity factor to get your daily total (TDEE).
Questions
What is the difference between BMR and TDEE?
BMR is what you burn at rest. TDEE adds digestion, daily movement and exercise on top.
