Frequently Asked Questions

What is the formula used for this calculator?
This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation to estimate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is then multiplied by an activity factor to determine your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE), or maintenance calories.
How accurate are these calorie estimates?
While the Mifflin-St Jeor equation is considered highly accurate for a formula, these numbers are still estimates. Individual metabolism can vary. It's best to use this as a starting point and adjust based on your real-world results.
Why does activity level matter so much?
Your BMR is the energy your body burns at rest. However, any physical activity, from walking to intense exercise, burns additional calories. The activity multiplier accounts for this, giving a more realistic picture of your total daily energy needs.
