How Are Daily Calories Calculated?

This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation to estimate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), then multiplies it by an activity factor to find your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). Your TDEE is the number of calories you burn per day.

Calories for Weight Loss vs. Weight Gain

A deficit of 500 calories per day leads to roughly 1 pound of weight loss per week. For weight gain and muscle building, a surplus of 250-500 calories is recommended alongside a strength training program.
