The Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) calculator estimates the number of calories or kilojoules you burn per day. It takes into account your basal metabolic rate (BMR) and your activity level.
Here's what each input means:
The activity levels are defined as:
Remember, the TDEE is an estimate and can vary based on factors not accounted for in this calculation, such as muscle mass, genetics, and specific health conditions. Use this as a starting point and adjust based on your personal results and goals.
The abbreviaton TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure. It is the total number of calories your body needs to perform its daily activities, including all physical activities and bodily functions. TDEE takes into account your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), which is the number of calories your body needs at rest, as well as the calories burned through physical activity and digestion.
TDEE can be calculated by first determining your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and then multiplying it by an activity factor that corresponds to your daily activity level. Our TDEE calculator will crunch the numbers for you. Just enter your details into the calculator and press the calculate button.
TDEE is influenced by factors such as age, gender, weight, height, body composition, and activity level.
Yes you can.
The best way to increase your TDEE is by increasing your physical activity level. Building muscle mass (or fat mass) will also increase your TDEE. Any bodyweight gain means that you carry more tissue and that tissue is metabolically active. It is better for health to gain lean body mass. Getjacked can help with that.
TDEE is important for several reasons. These include:
TDEE calculators provide estimates based on average values and standard formulas. They can give a good starting point, but individual variations can affect accuracy.
Yes, TDEE can change with alterations in body weight, muscle mass, age, activity level, and other factors.
To lose weight, you need to consume fewer calories than your TDEE (a caloric deficit). To gain weight, you need to consume more calories than your TDEE (a caloric surplus).
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the number of calories your body needs at rest to maintain basic physiological functions, while TDEE includes BMR plus the calories burned through physical activity and digestion.
It's a good idea to recalculate your TDEE periodically, especially if you experience significant changes in weight, activity level, or body composition.
