How is BMR calculated?

This calculator uses the Mifflin St Jeor equation.

For men:

BMR = (10 weight in kg) + (6.25 height in cm) - (5 age) + 5

For women:

BMR = (10 weight in kg) + (6.25 height in cm) - (5 age) - 161

Estimated daily calorie needs are calculated by multiplying BMR by an activity factor.

Important: BMR and daily calorie calculations are estimates. Actual energy requirements can vary with body composition, health, pregnancy, medications, training level and other individual factors. This calculator is intended for general informational use by adults and is not a medical or dietary prescription.
