How to calculate Body fat percentage in your body:
Easiest Formula:
Calculation of body fat percentage for men:
- You have to weigh your self in pounds " 1 kg equals 2.2 Pounds " .
- You have to measure your waist in inches " 1 inch equals 2.5 cm " .
Then Apply this formula:
* Multiply your total body weight by (1.082) Then add 94.42 to the result .
( Body weight x 1.082 ) + 94.42 = A
* Multiply your Waist by 4.15 .
( Waist measurement x 4.15 ) = B
* A - B = Lean body weight .
* Body fat weight = Total weight of the body - Lean body weight
* And finally :
Body fat % = Body fat weight multiplies by 100 and divide the result on your total body weight .
Body fat % = ( body fat weight x 100 ) / total body weight .
* A= " Total Body Weight x 0.732 " + 8.987
* B= Measurement of the Wrist " full point " / 3.140
* C= measurement of the Waist " at the umbilicus " x 0.157
* D= Measurement of the hip x 0.249
* E= Measurement of the forearm x 0.434
* Lean body weight = A+B-C-D+E
* Body fat weight = Total body weight - Lean body weight
And Finally
* Body fat % = " Fat weight x 100 " / the total body weight .
