BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate / Energy expenditure)

The Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) characterizes the energy
expenditure. The energy expenditure is used to describe the
amount of energy in in KCAL that the body requires per day
during complete rest, at an indifference temperature (28-
30 °C) and on an empty stomach for the maintenance of its
function (e.g. while sleeping).

BMI (Body Mass Index)

The Body Mass Index (BMI) refers the body weight to the
square of the body height.
BMI = Weight in kg: (body height in m x body height in m)
Example:
A woman weighs 55 kg and is 1.68 m tall. Her BMI is calcu-
lated as follows:
55 kg: (1.68 m x 1.68 m) ≈ 19.5 kg/m²
The value "square of the body height" is in no relation to the
body surface. The BMI is merely a rough reference value, as
it neither considers the build and gender, nor the individual
composition of the body mass from the fat and muscle tissue
of a human.

Reference values for the BMI

Please note that the interpretation of the BMI indicates
excess weight with very muscular bodies (bodybuilder). The
reason for this is that the far above-average muscle mass is
not considered in the BMI formula.
