What is BMR?
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the number of calories your body burns at rest. It is the foundation for calculating your TDEE and understanding your calorie needs.
How to Calculate BMR
The most accurate formula is the Mifflin-St Jeor equation:
Men: (10 × weight in kg) + (6.25 × height in cm) - (5 × age in years) + 5
Women: (10 × weight in kg) + (6.25 × height in cm) - (5 × age in years) - 161
