Body Mass Index (BMI)

1. The Lohman Equation is used to calculate body density of males. Body density (Bd)= [1.0973-(sum skinfold x .000815)]+[(sum skinfold)2 x .00000084] Sum of skinfold = triceps skinfold + subscapular skinfold + abdominal skinfold. 2. The Brozek equation is used to calculate body fat percentage from body density. Percent Body fat = (457/bd)-(414.2) 3. ................
