TDEE means what now?

Like, follow and share for more fitness and nutrition tips please! Much appreciated.

Composed of four other acronyms (RMR, NEAT, PA, TEF) Total Daily Energy Expenditure is crucial to understanding how many calories you burn on a daily basis. 💯

Resting Metabolic Rate: be that lump on the couch for a day, and this is how many calories you need to eat to maintain your weight 🛋️

Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis: normal daily things like walking, gardening, doing dishes, etc and how many calories it burns 🥗 🚶

Physical Activity: how many calories you burn with an acutal workout 🏃 🏋 🧘

Thermic Effect of Food: how many calories do you burn just to digest what you ate 🍌 🥑 🥕 🫐 🥩 🍣

Add those up, and that's your daily caloric expenditure. Sure, it can change daily but the rolling average is what matters.

Here's the kicker: building more muscle increases your RMR over time, so you automatically burn more calories! 💪

No need for excess cardio, which burns calories in a limited window.

Another fact: consuming more protein burns more calories via TEF than carbs and fats do by a significant margin. Increase your protein intake, burn more calories by simply eating. 🥩 🍗 🍖 🥓

Understanding your TDEE is pretty crucial for hitting your fat loss goals. Getting it right is the beginning - applying it correctly over time means continued success.
