BMR can be calculated using various formulas, with the Harris-Benedict and Mifflin-St Jeor equations being the most commonly used. These formulas take into account factors such as age, sex, weight, and height. For example, the Mifflin-St Jeor formula for men is:
BMR = 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 5 x age (years) + 5
For women, it is:
BMR = 10 x weight (kg) + 6.25 x height (cm) - 5 x age (years) - 161
