Good to know
What is TDEE?
Total Daily Energy Expenditure is the total number of calories your body burns in a day, including rest, digestion, and movement.
How is it calculated?
We estimate your BMR (calories burned at rest) with the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, then multiply by an activity factor for your weekly movement.
Which activity level should I choose?
Pick the option that matches a typical week. Most people who train a few times a week are Moderate. When unsure, choose a lower level so you do not overestimate.
How do I use my TDEE?
Eat around your TDEE to maintain weight, below it to lose, and above it to gain. For a safe, doctor-guided plan, take the free assessment.
Is this number exact?
No. It is an estimate. Real needs vary with metabolism, muscle, and health conditions. Use it as a starting point, not a rule.
