How did we calculate your Body Fat Percentage?
First, we calculated your Body Mass Index (BMI) using the following formula:
BMI=(Weight/Height^2)x703
Second, we calculated the age factor by multiplying your age by 0.23.
Third, we added the BMI to the age factor.
Fourth, we deducted 5.4 from the total if you are female or we deducted 16.20 from the total if you are a male.
Then, we rounded the final answer to two decimals to get your Body Fat Percentage.
