  7. What is BMR? • Basal metabolic rate • Min. amount of energy (in calories) that your body requires to function. • Breathing • Breaking down food • Brain activity • Heart pumping

  8. Calculating BMR in Men • Formula - 66 + (6.3 x weight in pounds) + (12.9 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years) • EX: • 66+(1228.5) + (915.9) – (176.8) = 2033.6 ** My personal BMR **

  9. Calculating BMR in Women • Formula - 655 + (4.3 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years) • EX : • 655+(537.5) + (305.5) – (103.4) = 1394.6 • **Random woman BMR **

  10. Now what?! • If you are sedentary : BMR x 20 percent • If you are lightly active: BMR x 30 percent • If you are moderately active (You exercise most days a week.): BMR x 40 percent • If you are very active (5 days a week intensely) BMR x 50 percent • If you are extra active (You do hard labor or are in athletic training.): BMR x 60 percent
