BMR Calculator

BMR Calculator

This Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) calculator can be used to estimate your basal metabolic rate—the amount of energy expended while at rest in a neutrally temperate environment, in the post-absorptive state (meaning that the digestive system is inactive, which requires about twelve hours of fasting in humans). This calculator is based on the Mifflin - St Jeor equation.

This calorie calculator is based on the Mifflin - St Jeor equation. With this equation, the Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) can be calculated with the following formula.

for man: BMR = 10 * weight(kg) + 6.25 * height(cm) - 5 * age(y) + 5
for woman: BMR = 10 * weight(kg) + 6.25 * height(cm) - 5 * age(y) - 161
