Calorie targets by goal
These are estimates based on population formulas — individual metabolism varies. Not medical advice; consult a professional before major diet changes. Computed entirely in your browser.
Calculate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) using three proven formulas: Mifflin-St Jeor, revised Harris-Benedict, and Katch-McArdle (when body fat % is known). Supports metric and imperial units, five activity levels, and shows calorie targets for cutting, maintaining and bulking. Runs entirely in your browser.
This tool calculates both Basal Metabolic Rate and Total Daily Energy Expenditure using three established scientific formulas: Mifflin-St Jeor, revised Harris-Benedict, and Katch-McArdle. It provides clear calorie targets for cutting, maintenance, and bulking across metric and imperial units. Because it runs entirely in your browser, calculations are instant, free, and require no account creation or software installation.
Good to know: Calculations based on formulas provide general estimates rather than precise clinical measurements; individuals with specific medical requirements or athletes needing exact metabolic testing may require professional assessment.
