How to use

Women generally have a lower BMR than men at the same size due to less lean mass, so this pre-sets female in the Mifflin-St Jeor equation.

Formula

BMR = 10·w + 6.25·h − 5·a − 161, then × activity.

FAQ

Why is female BMR lower?

Lower average lean mass and hormonal differences reduce resting burn.

Pregnancy or menopause?

Those change needs; this is a general estimate.
