Frequently Asked Questions
What is Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)?
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is the minimum number of calories your body burns at complete rest to maintain vital functions such as breathing, blood circulation, and cell production.
What is the Mifflin-St Jeor formula?
The Mifflin-St Jeor formula is the most current and accurate method for calculating BMR. For men: 10 x weight + 6.25 x height - 5 x age + 5. For women: 10 x weight + 6.25 x height - 5 x age - 161.
How can I increase my BMR?
Increasing muscle mass is the most effective method because muscle tissue burns more energy than fat tissue. Regular strength training, adequate protein intake, and quality sleep contribute to increasing BMR.
