1. What is TDEE Calculator For Men?

The TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) Calculator for Men estimates your daily calorie needs using the Mifflin-St Jeor equation. It calculates both Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and total energy expenditure based on your activity level.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the Mifflin-St Jeor equation for men:

\[ BMR = 10 \times weight + 6.25 \times height - 5 \times age + 5 \] \[ TDEE = BMR \times activity\ multiplier \]

Where:

\( weight \) — Body weight in kilograms (kg)
\( height \) — Height in centimeters (cm)
\( age \) — Age in years
\( activity\ multiplier \) — Based on activity level (1.2-1.9)

Activity Multipliers:

Sedentary (little or no exercise): 1.2
Light (exercise 1-3 days/week): 1.375
Moderate (exercise 3-5 days/week): 1.55
Very Active (exercise 6-7 days/week): 1.725
Extra Active (very hard exercise, physical job): 1.9

3. Importance of TDEE Calculation

Details: Knowing your TDEE is essential for weight management, whether your goal is weight loss, maintenance, or muscle gain. It helps determine appropriate calorie intake for your fitness objectives.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter your weight in kg, height in cm, age in years, and select your activity level. All values must be valid (weight > 0, height > 0, age between 1-120).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the difference between BMR and TDEE?
A: BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the calories your body burns at complete rest. TDEE (Total Daily Energy Expenditure) includes all activities and is BMR multiplied by an activity factor.

Q2: How accurate is the Mifflin-St Jeor equation?
A: It's considered one of the most accurate equations for estimating BMR in healthy individuals, with an accuracy of about ±10% for most people.

Q3: Should I use my current weight or goal weight?
A: Always use your current weight for accurate TDEE calculation. Adjust as your weight changes.

Q4: How often should I recalculate my TDEE?
A: Recalculate whenever your weight changes significantly (±2-3 kg) or your activity level changes substantially.

Q5: Can this calculator be used for women?
A: This specific calculator uses the equation for men. Women should use a different equation: BMR = 10 × weight + 6.25 × height - 5 × age - 161.
