What does TDEE mean?
TDEE stands for total daily energy expenditure. It is your estimated daily calorie burn, including activity and normal movement.
Why is TDEE useful?
It gives you a maintenance baseline, which makes it easier to set a sensible deficit or surplus for your goal.
How often should I recalculate TDEE?
Recalculate when body weight, training volume, or activity level changes materially, or when the scale trend stops matching the plan.
