1) B.M.R. (Basal Metabolic Rate) B.M.R. refers to the calories required to maintain human body's basic function such as movement of heart, brain, neural transmission, regulating body temperature and so on. B.M.R. is in proportion to S.L.M. because body fat stores energy while muscle consumes energy. Therefore, even if the weight is same between persons, the person with more muscle has greater B.M.R.
