Calculate your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) and discover personalized calorie targets for weight loss, maintenance, or muscle gain. Powered by the science-backed Mifflin-St Jeor equation for maximum accuracy.
TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure. It is the total number of calories you burn each day through basic bodily functions and physical activity. Knowing your TDEE helps you set realistic goals for weight loss, maintenance, or muscle gain.
This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, which is considered one of the most accurate for estimating BMR and TDEE. However, actual needs may vary based on genetics, metabolism, and other factors.
Use your TDEE to set calorie targets for your goals. Eat below TDEE to lose weight, at TDEE to maintain, and above TDEE to gain weight. Adjust based on your progress and how you feel.
Pick the activity level that best matches your typical week. If unsure, choose the lower option and adjust as needed.
This calculator provides an estimate of your TDEE and calorie targets. Individual needs may vary. Consult with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for personalized advice, especially if you have underlying health conditions.
The Mifflin-St Jeor equation is used for BMR calculation, which is widely considered accurate. However, these are still estimations.
