When it comes to weight management, understanding how your body burns calories is crucial. Two key concepts to grasp are Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) and Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). These terms represent the foundation of how your body uses energy and are essential for creating effective weight loss, maintenance, or muscle gain strategies.
This podcast breaks down BMR and TDEE, explains their importance, and provides tips for calculating and optimizing them for your goals.
