This is the estimated number of calories you burn daily. Use this number to plan your diet for weight loss, maintenance, or muscle gain.

How the TDEE Calculator Works

The calculator first finds your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) using the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation, then multiplies it by your activity level to estimate your total daily calories burned.

• BMR: Calories needed at rest for vital functions.
• Activity multiplier: Adjusts for your daily movement and exercise.
