Omronhealthcare-ap.com (IN) Know Your Body Inside Out The weight of a human body is a combination of weights of muscles; bones body water, organs, tissues, and fat. Therefore one cannot say that the whole weight of an individual comprises fat! Also, the weight alone does not tell that the person is healthy or unhealthy; the location of the fat instead tells about the health status of the individual. The body fat percentage calculator is one of the many ways through which one can measure one’s true body fat. The body fat percentage calculator calculates the total mass of the fat and divides it by total body mass. The outcomes are the body fat which in turn includes two types of body fats, one is the essential body fat and the other is storage body fat. The essential body fat is necessary for one’s proper functioning, and it needs to be greater in women as compared to men due to childbearing demands and other hormonal requirements. The body fat percentage calculator uses the Hodgdon-Beckett formula, which is also used by the US Navy to measure the body fat percentage using tape measurements. The following requirements are required of the individual to get correct results out of the body fat percentage calculator: The gender of the individual The height of the individual either in inches or centimeters The weight of the individual in kilograms The measurement of the waist at the navel point either in inches or centimeters The measurement of the neck at the narrowest either in inches or centimeters Body fat percentage calculator can be bought through any online website or web store; or also can be used for free over the internet. But not every calculator gives authentic results therefore one should always use an authentic and good company’s calculator.
