How it works
BMR uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, the most accurate widely-used formula:
- Men:
10·kg + 6.25·cm − 5·age + 5 - Women:
10·kg + 6.25·cm − 5·age − 161
TDEE = BMR × activity multiplier. To lose weight steadily, eat ~500 kcal under TDEE (≈0.5 kg / 1 lb per week). To gain, add ~300 kcal for clean lean-mass gains.
