Using math, we can calculate our body fat. • Start by determining your Body Surface Area... • http://www.medcalc.com/body.html • I am 1.92 meters squared. • Multiply by 10,000 to get centimeters squared.... • I am 19,200 CM squared. • Estimate your thickness of fat in centimeters, I used 0.6cm. • Multiply thickness by BSA (0.6x19200) and get results.... • I am 11,520 cubic centimeters (1000 cubic CM = 1 liter) • I am 11.5 cubic liters of fat (picture a 2 liter pop bottle) • 1 gallon=3.8 liters, divide 11.5 by 3.8 to get 3 gallons • 1 gallon is roughly 8 pounds (fat is less dense than water, so a gallon of fat actually weighs slightly less than 8 lb) • I am 24lb of fat, divide into 165, for 14.6% fat. • Now, to determine intraabdominal fat, either picture how many gallons you could put in your belly to make it look like it does, or use math to guestimate. • My circumference is 30 inches, multiply by 2.54 to get 76 centimeters circumference. Plug it into the calculator below as CMs to get volume. • http://www.rkm.com.au/CALCULATORS/CAL... • Plug in your circumference to get volume in cubic centimeters. Divide by 1000 to get volume of abdomen.. • If you are a man, subtract 7.4 liters of organs to get your fat. • For a woman subtract 4.6 liters to get fat. Add that value to the value of subcutaneous fat, to get your total fat.
