Protein target

Estimate a daily protein range from body weight or fat-free mass and your training goal.

kg

Daily protein range (body weight)

70–98 g

Useful when training regularly or wanting fuller meals.

Rough per-meal target (3 meals)

~28 g

Spread intake across the day when possible. Plant protein from dals, soy, and pulses stacks well.

Calorie & TDEE estimate

Mifflin–St Jeor BMR with activity and a simple goal adjustment for lose, maintain, gain, or muscle.

yrs

kg

3–5 training days or active job

Estimated BMR

1535 kcal

Resting energy using Mifflin–St Jeor.

Estimated maintenance

2379 kcal

3–5 training days or active job

Suggested daily target

2379 kcal

Maintenance is an estimate—adjust based on 2–3 weeks of weight trend.

Macro split

Turn calories into protein, carbs, and fat using g/kg protein and a fat percentage you choose.

Values are estimates for planning, not lab-precise labels.

Fiber target

Combine a per-calorie rule of thumb with common sex-based reference ranges.

kcal

A common rule of thumb is about 14 g fiber per 1,000 kcal.

Suggested fiber range

30–35 g

Increase gradually and drink enough water.

From calorie rule

31 g

Sex reference used for comparison: ~30 g/day.

BMI & weight range

Quick BMI calculation plus the weight band that maps to BMI 18.5–24.9 for your height.

cm
kg

BMI

24.2

Within the common healthy-weight BMI band

BMI 18.5–24.9 weight range

53–72 kg

BMI is a rough population tool. Athletes, older adults, and many clinical contexts need better measures.

Hydration estimate

A rough daily fluid target from weight, activity, and heat—useful as a baseline only.

kg

Fluid target

2.6 L

About 2600 ml, or roughly 10 glasses of 250 ml.

How to use this

Starting point

Thirst, urine colour, and medical conditions matter more than any fixed rule. Includes water from food and other drinks in a broad sense—adjust to comfort.
