I calculate my TDEE I'm 18y'rs old 172.5cm male 68kg, I choose 3-5hrs/week moderate exercise but I'm exercising over that rate I can do 6-7hrs or over around every week but I'll play safe :) Scooby give me around 2600-2700 Any opinions or I'll do wrong on my calculation? Comment it down, Thanks (Y)

    It's close enough. The only thing that will tell you what you want to know is the scale and a few weeks. Pick a number, go for several weeks, then adjust. You're about right at 2600-2700 to start.

    Shouldn't it be TWEE if you're committing to X hours of exercise per week?

    Edit: Or maybe RWEE for rough weekly energy expenditure? If it's based on 3 to 5 hours and you're going to be doing 6 to 7, it's not total energy use at all.

    What? I doesn't, at first I questioned many times about exercise calories and sorry for that if i'm mistaken. Right now I got to try TDEE for week or two if it is good or whatever and I ask for peoples opinion here about the topic. Apologies if I offended anything here. :|

    I don't understand what you are asking, so I don't know how to answer.
