The Harris Benedict Equation = Caloric Intake Calculation

I started reading the book and the first thing you need to do is define your goal and calculate how many calories you need accordingly.

Step 1. Calculate BMR - basic energy requirements

Step 2)Use the Harris Benedict Equation

Step 3) Add or subtract 250-300 calories for weight loss / gain

My Calculations.
Weight = 167 lbs
Height = 70 inches
Age = 27
Goal: Gain lean muscle mass.

My BMR= 1811.81
Harris Benedict = 1811.81 * 1.7 (Very Active) = 3080.08. That is a lot of calories!!!

Caloric Needs per day to Gain Weight=3350

I'll post my official stats in a later post.
