📖 What is BMR?

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the number of calories your body needs to perform basic life-sustaining functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production while at complete rest.

🎯 Why BMR Matters for Weight Management

Your BMR accounts for 60-75% of your total daily calorie expenditure. Knowing your BMR helps you:

  • Create effective weight loss plans (eat below maintenance)
  • Plan weight gain strategies (eat above maintenance)
  • Maintain your current weight (eat at maintenance)
  • Understand your body's basic energy needs

⚖️ How to Use This Information

For weight loss: Consume 300-500 calories less than your daily needs.
For weight gain: Consume 300-500 calories more than your daily needs.
For weight maintenance: Consume calories equal to your daily needs.

Note: These are estimates. Individual variations may apply based on muscle mass, health conditions, and other factors.
