You can calculate your BMR by using a mathematical formula the takes the variables of your height, weight, age, and gender. The only factor the calculation omits is lean body mass, your body's ratio of muscle to fat. Essentially, leaner bodies need more calories than less lean ones (yep that's right, that's because muscle needs more energy than fat), therefore this equation will be accurate give or take 100 calories. In the very muscular it will underestimate calories, and in the less muscular it will overestimate them.
Ok, here's the BMR formula:
WOMEN: 655 + (4.35 x weight in lbs) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)
MEN: 66 + (6.23 x weight in lbs) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in years)
You then add your calories burned during exercise, per your Heart Rate Monitor, and then subtract your calories consumed. If you have a balance, then you've created a deficit! If not, then you've created a calorie surplus.
