Understanding Your Metabolic Rate

Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) represents the calories your body burns at rest to maintain basic life functions. Understanding your BMR is crucial for effective weight management and metabolic health optimization.

The Science Behind BMR

Your BMR is influenced by several key factors:

  • Body composition (muscle mass burns more calories)
  • Age (metabolism typically slows with age)
  • Gender (hormonal differences affect metabolism)
  • Genetics and overall health status

Factors Affecting Daily Calorie Needs

Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) includes:

  • Basal Metabolic Rate (60-75% of calories)
  • Physical Activity (15-30% of calories)
  • Thermic Effect of Food (10% of calories)
  • Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT)

Optimizing Your Metabolism

Key strategies to support a healthy metabolism:

  • Regular strength training to build muscle
  • Adequate protein intake for muscle maintenance
  • Consistent sleep patterns
  • Stress management techniques
