Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The BMR refers to the amount of energy your body needs to maintain homeostasis. Your BMR is largely determined by your total lean mass, especially muscle mass, because lean mass requires a lot of energy to maintain.

Detailed explanation-2: -Resting energy expenditure was measured by means of the indirect calorimetry method using a calorimeter (Fitmate MED, Cosmed, Rome, Italy).

Detailed explanation-3: -Energy expenditure can be estimated by measuring macronutrient or oxygen consumption, or heat production or carbon dioxide production. Most measurement approaches in use today involve the measurement of oxygen consumption and/or production of carbon dioxide via indirect calorimetry.

Detailed explanation-4: -Overall, TDEE includes everything from fidgeting to your exercise routine. All of the work your body does at rest is called your resting energy expenditure (REE) or basal metabolic rate (BMR). This component (your BMR) of your TDEE makes up approximately 60% to 70% of the average person’s total expenditure.
