TDEE Calculator: Calculate Daily Energy Expenditure

What is TDEE?

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) is the total number of calories your body burns daily through basal metabolism, digestion, and physical activity. Understanding your TDEE is essential for weight management, fitness planning, and nutrition.

How TDEE is Calculated

TDEE combines two components:

• BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate): Calories burned at rest
• Activity Multiplier: Additional calories burned through exercise

How to Use Your TDEE for Goals

• Weight Loss: Eat 500 calories below your TDEE daily (1 lb loss per week)
• Maintenance: Eat at your TDEE to maintain current weight
• Muscle Gain: Eat 500 calories above your TDEE with strength training
