BMR Calculator (Basal Metabolic Rate)
Calculate your Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) using clinical standards.
Daily Energy Expenditure Profile
BMR (Resting Calories)
0 kcal
Sedentary TDEE

Total burn with zero exercise
Clinical Note: BMR represents the minimum energy required to keep your vital organs functioning while at rest. Consuming fewer calories than your BMR can stall metabolic health.
Understanding Your Metabolic Baseline
Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body burns to perform basic life-sustaining functions, such as breathing, nutrient processing, and cell production.
Our online BMR calculator utilizes the Mifflin-St Jeor Equation, which is currently recognized as the gold standard for predicting resting energy expenditure in the medical community.
The Calculation Logic:
$$BMR = (10 \times weight) + (6.25 \times height) - (5 \times age) + s$$ Where $s$ is $+5$ for males and $-161$ for females.
