Current Body Measurement
The body fat calculator can be used to estimate your total body fat based on specific measurements.
Current body measurement. Use the metric units tab if you are more comfortable with the international system of units si. Calculate your body mass index. The body fat index is not an indicator of fitness level since the calculation is made with no regard to height or weight. To get the best results measure to the nearest 14 inch 05 cm.
Ongoing efforts involve multisegmental and multifrequency bioelectrical impedance analysis quantitative magnetic resonance for total body water fat and. Abstract purpose of review the current article reviews the most innovative and precise available methods for quantification of in vivo human body composition. A basic way to measure body fat percentage is by using a soft tape measure like the kind youd use for sewing to record measurements of different parts of the body. Select compute bmi and your bmi will appear below.
Enter your weight and height using standard or metric measures. Then input your gender and measurements below to receive a body fat index based on average values. Body composition measurement methods are continuously being perfected. Pai conducts research on the optimization of antimicrobial drug dosing most recently in the obese population.

Body mass index bmi is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to adult men and women. He is the author of the origin of the ideal body weight equations a comprehensive literature review on the creation of and iterations to the ideal body weight formula over time. Bioelectrical impedance analysis bia is a commonly used method for estimating body composition in particular body fat and muscle massin bia a weak electric current flow through the body and the voltage is measured in order to calculate impedance resistance of the body.
Recent findings body composition measurement methods are continuously being perfected.
