Which site do you all use to figure out your BMR and TDEE?

I've noticed that several different sites give varying information and it can get confusing.

I finally ended up going by the numbers given to me from Fat2Fit Radio after seeing that quite a few people have gotten accurate numbers from that site.

So I'm just curious if you all used a specific site to get your numbers or if you just did the math on your own?

    I took an average of three different ones-

    FitnessFrog Calorie Calculator
    HealthCalc TDEE

    aaand... a third one I can't find for some reason lol

    Thanks Lucia! I went to that site and it totally has different numbers than what I got from the Fat2Fit site.

    On Fitness Frog, my BMR is 1566 and TDEE is 2427 (without a deficit).

    On Fat2Fit, my BRM is 1322 and TDEE is 2139 (without a deficit).

    Based on your experience, which is the most accurate?? I wouldn't be so concerned about it if it wasn't such a huge difference in numbers!

    that is a big difference! I initially used the calculations in NROL4W, then Fitness Frog, they weren't too different.

    I used 8 different calculations (to find an accurate one) and took the average. My BMR ranges from 1290 to 1445 with my TDEE ranging from 1680 to 1940!

    I still don't know which is most accurate lol
