Figuring out BMR?

I know this gets asked so much, but the search function, etc.

What's the method for figuring out BMR and the best websites for doing so?

Re: Figuring out BMR?

  • http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/bmr-formula.php

    Also on that page is a calculation to figure out what it would be depending on your activity level.

  • Just a warning, I know this calculation works for a LOT of people, but for some people it does not. I had a few appointments with a registered dietician, who did a BMR breathing test for me. My calculated BMR from the above website was 1450 at rest, my BMR from the test was 2050 at rest. A huge difference. I know I'm in the small percentage of people outside of the calculation, but just wanted to throw it out there that it can happen.
