TDEE vs BMR — What Is the Difference?
BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the calories your body burns at complete rest — if you did nothing but breathe all day. TDEE is your BMR multiplied by an activity factor that accounts for everything you actually do: walking, working out, fidgeting, working a physical job.
BMR is a theoretical floor. TDEE is the number you actually eat against. Always use your TDEE — not your BMR — when calculating calorie targets for any goal.
