BMR Calculator

Basal metabolic rate is the amount of calories your body will need to be able to function while at rest for 24 hours. Most people looking to take part in a diet or a certain exercise routine take note of their basal metabolic rate to help them lose weight. The BMR is widely used to provide the figures you need to maintain your current weight. The Excel BMR Calculator will take your physical stats and output your BMR in an easy to use interface.

Without you realizing it, your usual body functions use up a lot of energy. Activities like breathing, body temperature maintenance, and regulation of the circulatory system take up about 70% of the calories you go through in a day. To gain or lose weight, you’ll need to adjust your number by a few hundred calories each way. Obviously, reducing your caloric intake will help you to lose weight. In order to pack on some pounds, increase your calorie intake.
