Want to know your bodyfat % ?

[Doug]

height: 65.75 inches / 167 cm
weight: 145 lbs / 65.77 kg
wist: 30 inches / 76.2 cm
wrist:7.75 inches / 19.68 cm

Are you sure that your measurements are right, did you use a tape measure, check the wrist measurement.

With the measurements you have given me it comes out to about 3% bodyfat which is impossible. Your BMI is just over 24 which is at the top of the "normal" range....!!

I was planning to cut fat soon, but that looks like a bad idea jk jk but here is the information I got this time;

height: 66 inches / 167.64
weight: 146 lbs / 54.48 kg
waist: 30 inches / 76.2 cm
wrist: 6.86 (6 7/8) inches / 17.42 cm

looks like I did some bad converting and if you can, tell me my BMI

You have a BMI of 20.2 which is normal for someone who doesnt train..

I would advise eating up and putting some lean body mass on, I have female fitness competitors who have more lean body mass than you.....get the plate out and start eating......

Measure your waist around the belly button, and the wrist measurement is taken above the hand and below the wrist bone. Do not guess the measurements, or take the size of the jeans, pants etc. USE A TAPE MEASURE.....!!!!!

Don't know how i lost like quater of an inch on my wrist, but the tape measure says so And gained 6lbs in 3 weeks, and lost a size in my waist.. I think iv done these wrong but.. Mother done them for me both times LOL, so Don't know if their accurate really... She was probably abit loose with the measure the first time.

And this maybe a good idea for ya doug.. i read somewhere you saying ' i got the charts in the house', maybe just post up part of the charts here like the most common statuts, for example,

"If you have a waist of 36, a wrist of 6.5, a height of 72 and (w.e else), then your body fat is: "

And keep adding to it each time you are on the site or something, will save you alot of time maybe, just an idea though xP

Hi, your results...

Your bodyfat percentage = 21%
Your total bodyfat = 37.1 lbs
Your fat free mass = 139.9 lbs

Which gives you a fat loss of -5.3 lbs. and a fat free mass gain of +11.3 lbs

Great results...!!

Are your measurements correct..??

From the measurements above I get the following

Your bodyfat percentage = 6%
Your total bodyfat = 7.6 lbs
Your fat free mass = 119.4 lbs

We need some muscle on them bones.......!!!

I remember in This Thread where you say "bodyfat lower than 7% will lose muscle"...

[Geo_NJ1405]

Yes, the measurements are correct. It is for my 16 yr old son if that makes a difference. I wouldnt consider him to be skinny.

[Geo_NJ1405]

height is 5 ft 4 inches. I think that is the missing metric,

[Doug]

The charts really are for people above the age of 19..

Did you measure around the navel, and the wrist above the hand and below the wrist bone..??
