BMR Calculator

🔥 BMR Calculator

Calculate Your Basal Metabolic Rate & Daily Calorie Needs

Your Basal Metabolic Rate
calories per day at rest
Formula Used: Mifflin-St Jeor Equation (most accurate for modern lifestyles)

📊 Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)

Based on your activity level:

Sedentary (little or no exercise)
Light (exercise 1-3 days/week)
Moderate (exercise 3-5 days/week)
Active (exercise 6-7 days/week)
Very Active (intense exercise daily)

💡 What is BMR?

Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body burns at rest to maintain basic life functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production.

How to use this information:

To maintain weight: Eat calories equal to your TDEE

To lose weight: Eat 300-500 calories below your TDEE

To gain weight: Eat 300-500 calories above your TDEE

⚠️ Never eat below your BMR for extended periods without medical supervision.
