How it works
TDEE = BMR × activity factor
Using the calculator
Enter: Sex used in the equation · Age in completed years (18+) · Body weight · Body height · Activity level. Calculation: TDEE = BMR × activity factor.
Worked input and result
Example: Sex used in the equation = Male (+5); Age in completed years (18+) = 30; Body weight = 80 kg; Body height = 180 cm; Activity level = Sedentary · 1.2. Result: Estimated daily energy expenditure = 2,136 kcal/day (Estimated resting energy expenditure: 1,780 kcal/day; Activity factor: 1.2).
Understanding the result
Multiplies the Mifflin–St Jeor estimate by a selected approximate activity factor of 1.2–1.9. Factors are rough estimates and actual expenditure varies. This is not a personalized calorie or weight-loss recommendation; not for children or pregnancy.
Total daily energy expenditure is estimated from the resting-rate model and selected activity factor. It is a population-based estimate rather than a measurement of an individual’s calorie needs.
