The Totally FREE Lean It UP Calorie and BMI Calculator
A while back I posted a full guide on “How to Calculate YOUR Personalized Calorie Needs,” which was pretty good…but it actually required a little bit of effort. With that considered, I’ve developed a simplified excel calorie calculator that only requires you to input your body fat %, weight, and TDEE multiplier (total daily energy expenditure)…and voila, it’ll spit out your very own personal daily caloric requirements for any situation.
If you don’t know your body fat % off-hand, or have any way of measuring it any time soon, I’ve included a glossary of pictures to use as reference. I’ve also included a chart of different TDEE multipliers and what each number represents.
Additionally, although I personally think BMI is a really stupidly horrible metric to gauge whether or not someone can be classified as underweight, normal, overweight, or obese (I’m 7% body fat, but it classifies me as borderline overweight…go figure), I’ve also built in a simplified BMI calculator that requires you to only input your height and weight. BMI is a pretty widely used and recognized indicator of the obesity/overweight percentage of the population, so it’s definitely interesting to see where you fall and how you’re classified.
