Calorie Needs Averaged for Man - Large FrameGot a large skeletal frame and you're wondering how many daily calories that your body requires to support your recommended weight OR your current weight? Let's see.... Example: The Daily Calorie Needs for a man with a large frame who is 5'5" tall and leads a Moderate Lifestyle needs an average calorie intake of about 2,280. Let's call our guy Fred. If he decides to till his garden space, then mow his big yard with a hand mower, then put up a fence - then move a pile of heavy stones from one pile to another area, then Fred will require far more than 2,584 calories - the number of calories required for an active lifestyle. If Fred were of medium frame size he would require fewer calories. A man who is his same height and of moderate activity level requires about 2,138 calories - more than 100 calories difference. While body frame size matters and impacts recommended weight as well as caloric needs, several other factors also influence what we weigh - including our age, muscle mass, climate and our rate of metabolism.
