    What is "Moderate Activity" / "High Activity" etc?

    Using my BMR to calculate my my calorie needs for gaining. According to the chart below:

    Sedentary activity - BMR x 1.2
    Light activity - BMR x 1.375
    Moderately activity - BMR x 1.55
    High activity - BMR x 1.725
    Extreme activity - BMR x 1.9

    Question is....im not even sure where I fall on this? What kind of activity is needed to be considered High?

    I got this from the following site:

    If you workout four days a week or more you would be considered high.
