Understanding TDEE

What is TDEE?

TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) is the total number of calories you burn in a 24-hour period, including your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) plus calories burned through physical activity.

BMR represents the calories your body burns at rest to maintain basic physiological functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production.

The activity factor multiplies your BMR based on your daily activity level to estimate total calories burned.

How to Use TDEE

Use your TDEE as a baseline for weight management. Eat fewer calories than your TDEE to lose weight, or more to gain weight.

Track your actual results over 2-3 weeks and adjust calories based on your progress, as individual metabolism can vary.

Remember that TDEE is an estimate. Factors like genetics, hormones, and metabolic adaptation can affect your actual calorie needs.
