Formula Used:
📌 U.S. Navy Method (more accurate, based on body measurements)
- For Men:
BF% = 86.01 × log10(Waist – Neck) – 70.041 × log10(Height) + 36.76 - For Women:
BF% = 163.205 × log10(Waist + Hip – Neck) – 97.684 × log10(Height) – 78.387
📌 BMI-Based Method (simpler but less accurate)
- BF% = (1.20 × BMI) + (0.23 × Age) – (10.8 × Gender) – 5.4
- (Gender: Male = 1, Female = 0)
Body Fat Classification:
📌 Essential Fat: Men: 2-5% | Women: 10-13%
