1. Your calculated BMR Your range of BMR Of course, this is based on resting values. A basically sedentary person (a typist) would add 15% increase to their BMR to determine the amount of caloric intake they need per day. Light activites (like a teacher) add 25– 30% to your basic nutrient requirements. Moderate activity ( like a nurse) adds 30-45% and heavy work (like a laborer) adds 75 to 85% to your daily energy requirement. Remember, these are approximations, and may not truly capture your individual energy requirements. Determine the percentage category your activity level places you in. Determine that percent of your BMR and add it to your BMR. For example, if our 154 lb male laborer above had a BMR of 1750 Kcal. (day, 75% of that would be 1,312.5 kcal day.

1750kcal/day x .75 (75%) = 1,312.5 kcal/day
Which would mean he would need to ingest:
1750 (BMR) +1,312.5 (additional) = 3,062.5 kcals/day to maintain his body weight. We could again use our
10% figure to determine his range by adding and subtracting 306 to and from 3,062.5 such that
3062.5+ 306 = 3368.5
3062.5-306=2,756.5
Making his daily intake range between 2,756.5 and 3,368.5.
Once again, his body composition and specific things can push him to the top or bottom of the range, depending
on his particular circumstances. Since he is a roofer and tends to work in the hot sun we could predict he would
be at the top of the predicted range (elevated temperature elevates metabolic rate!).

A sample calculation based on a 154 lb male, age 20 would be:
154 lbs/2.2 = 70 kg
15.3 x 70 + 679 = 1750 kcal/day
EXERCISE 1: Calculation of average BMR and Daily Caloric Needs:
Calculate your estimated BMR using the above formula.
It is best to recognize that this is a table based on statistical analysis and that each individual will have
variations depending on their own body composition. If you have low thyroid hormone, your values would be
less than these predicted values, for example. Muscle requires more energy than fat to sustain, therefore a
person weighing 200 lbs who is lean and musculature will have a higher BMR than someone who weighs 200
lbs due to excess fat. Most people tend to look at these values within a range of plus or minus 10%, which takes
in much more of the population. To determine the range find 10% of your predicted BMR. Now subtract that
number from the BMR to get one side of the range and then add it to BMR to get the high side of the range.
1. Your calculated BMR
Your range of BMR
Of course, this is based on resting values. A basically sedentary person (a typist) would add 15% increase to
their BMR to determine the amount of caloric intake they need per day. Light activites (like a teacher) add 25-
30% to your basic nutrient requirements. Moderate activity (like a nurse) adds 30-45% and heavy work (like a
laborer) adds 75 to 85% to your daily energy requirement. Remember, these are approximations, and may not
truly capture your individual energy requirements.
Determine the percentage category your activity level places you in. Determine that percent of your BMR and
add it to your BMR. For example, if our 154 lb male laborer above had a BMR of 1750 Kcal./day, 75% of that
would be 1,312.5 kcal day.
1750kcal/day x75 (75%) = 1,312.5 kcal/day
