The Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) Calculator estimates your basal metabolic rate—the amount of energy expended while the body is at rest in a neutrally temperate environment, and in a post-absorptive state (meaning that the digestive system is inactive, which requires about 12 hours of fasting).
BMR = -- Calories/day
| Activity Level | Estimated Calories |

Notes on activity levels:
• Sedentary: little or no exercise
• Light exercise: 1–3 times/week
• Moderate exercise: 3–5 times/week
• Intense exercise: 6–7 times/week or physical job
• Very intense exercise: daily exercise + physical job or training twice daily
