BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate), also known as your metabolism, relates to the amount of calories your body requires to continue functioning at rest.
If you've ever felt like your metabolism decreases each birthday that passes, then you've noticed that BMR is dependent on many factors including age, body mass, weight and height. Your gender also plays a part as it is commonly regarded that men need a higher intake of calories than women. On top of that, the your activity level plays a part. A regular exercise routine can increase your BMR and improve your fitness Note : Other factors including stress, burns, or illness may increase daily caloric requirement
