Resting Daily Energy Expenditure by LBM

The Resting Daily Energy Expenditure by LBM formula computes the base daily rate of calorie consumption when at rest based on one's lean body mass.  

INSTRUCTIONS: Choose units and enter the following:

• (LBM) - Lean Body  Mass

Resting Daily Energy Expenditure (RDEE): The calculator returns the energy in food calories (kcal).

The Math / Science

The formula for Resting Daily Energy Expenditure is based on the Katch-McArdie equation as follows:

   `RDEE = 370 + (21.6 * LBM)`

where:

• RDEE = Resting Daily Energy Expenditure
• LBM = Lean Body Mass
