Total Daily Energy Expenditure
Use our free TDEE calculator to find your Total Daily Energy Expenditure - the number of calories you burn each day. Know your TDEE to create an effective diet plan for weight loss or muscle gain.
💡 Tip: Your TDEE changes as your weight, age, and activity level change. Recalculate every 4-6 weeks for best results.
TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure. It's the total number of calories you burn each day, combining your BMR (calories burned at rest) with calories burned through physical activity.
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the calories you burn doing nothing - just existing. TDEE includes BMR plus all physical activity. TDEE = BMR × activity multiplier.
This calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, considered the most accurate formula. However, individual metabolism varies. Use your TDEE as a starting point and adjust based on real-world results over 2-3 weeks.
