TDEE Calculator
Calculate your total daily energy expenditure and daily calorie needs
The TDEE Calculator helps you determine your Total Daily Energy Expenditure so you can understand how many calories your body burns each day.
What is TDEE?
TDEE stands for Total Daily Energy Expenditure. It represents the total number of calories your body burns in a day based on age, gender, weight, height, and activity level.
How is TDEE calculated?
TDEE is calculated by first estimating your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and then multiplying it by an activity factor based on your lifestyle and exercise level.
Activity Levels
- Sedentary: little or no exercise
- Lightly active: exercise 1 to 3 days per week
- Moderately active: exercise 3 to 5 days per week
- Very active: exercise 6 to 7 days per week
- Extremely active: intense training or physical work
How to use the calculator

How to use your result
If you eat the same number of calories as your TDEE, you will maintain your weight. Eating fewer calories can support weight loss, while eating more can help build muscle.
