Find and track your RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) with this easy to use calculator & tracker.
RMR represents the minimal amount of energy (calories) your body needs to stay alive and can be useful when trying to lose weight.
RMR is very similar to BMR (basal metabolic rate). The biggest difference between the two are how they are calculated.
The Harris-Benedict equation is used to estimate BMR, while the Mifflin-St Jeor equation is used to estimate RMR.
----------------------------- HOW RESTING METABOLIC RATE IS USED -----------------------------
Using this figure as a base line, add in all your additional burned calories (based on how active you were) to come up with your TDEE (total daily energy expenditure).
If your TDEE matches your Daily Calorie Intake, you will maintain your weight. Increasing your TDEE over your daily calorie intake and you will lose weight.
----------------------------- HOW THIS RMR CALCULATOR WORKS -----------------------------
Enter your information in either Metric or Imperial measurements.
Results are automatically calculated as you enter your information.
