Calculate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and daily calorie needs. Free BMR calculator with Harris-Benedict equation.
Basal Metabolic Rate & daily calorie needs
Daily Calorie Need
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
1,618 kcal/day
Your body needs this at complete rest
BMR uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation, considered the most accurate for the general population.
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is calories needed at rest. 60-75% of daily burn. Mifflin-St Jeor equation. Indian average: 1,200-1,600 (women), 1,500-2,000 (men).
Use our BMR Calculator to get accurate results instantly. You may also want to explore our BMI Calculator or Calorie Calculator.
The calculator applies the Harris-Benedict equation based on your inputs, then multiplies your BMR by an activity factor to estimate your total daily calorie needs.

Find answers to common questions about this calculator below.
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the calories your body burns at rest. For men: BMR = 88.362 + (13.397 × weight in kg) + (4.799 × height in cm) - (5.677 × age). For women: BMR = 447.593 + (9.247 × weight in kg) + (3.098 × height in cm) - (4.330 × age).
To lose 0.5 kg per week, create a deficit of 500 calories per day. Your TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) = BMR × activity factor. Eat TDEE - 500 calories daily for steady weight loss.
Men: (10×kg) + (6.25×cm) - (5×age) + 5. Women: (10×kg) + (6.25×cm) - (5×age) - 161.
TDEE = BMR × Activity Factor. Weight loss: 300-500 below TDEE.
Decreases 2-3% per decade after 20. Each kg muscle burns 13-30 cal/day.
Build muscle, eat protein, exercise, sleep 7-8h, hydrate.
Calculate BMR, TDEE, create 300-700 cal deficit. Never below BMR.
