BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)

Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy your body needs to maintain its basic functions at rest. It is influenced by factors such as age, gender, weight and height. Your BMR forms the basis for calculating your daily calorie needs and shows how much energy your body needs for its basic functions alone.

The BMR & BMI calculator is a tool that calculates the body mass index based on height and weight, giving an insight into a person's weight ratio. BMI helps classify weight into categories such as underweight, normal weight, overweight and obese, taking into account age and gender.

​

On the left is a table showing the body mass index (BMI) for a range of heights and weights in both metric and imperial units. The colors indicate the BMI categories defined by the World Health Organization: underweight, normal weight, overweight, moderately obese, severely obese, and very severely obese.

​

When it comes to setting BMI goals , it's important to set realistic and achievable milestones. A common assumption is a daily calorie deficit of 500 calories if you want to lose weight, or a surplus of 500 calories if you want to gain weight. However, keep in mind that this is just a rough estimate. For more precise information about your body composition and the best approaches to achieving your goals, we recommend our 3D scanners . With precise measurements and personalized recommendations, we can help you achieve your health goals and achieve a healthy BMI.
