Body Fat Calories calculation

Postby Hugh on Sun Mar 30, 2008 1:19 pm

Hello all,

Well you are gonna shout : LAZY... yeahhh a bit.

I am trying to find a formula to calculate caloric intake (roughly then fine tune according to my metabo) that would use my fat free BW instead of the total BW.

Is the 10 X BW (pounds) = caloric intake to cut a good example of a coeff using the fat free BW

I could see some 17 to 20 time BW to bulk.

Has anyone got "THE" mega high tech formula with tons of coeff that will give me the exact :D :D caloric intake I need to obese bulk,clean bulk, clean cut hahaha, anorexic cut ! ! And for my dear honey :lol: :lol: .

Thanks
Hugh

Can't you just find your LBM by doing (BM-%BF) then

go here http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/

that gives your BMR then multiply by your activity level...

then you just adjust your calories to suit a bulk or cut - I'd say there is a fair amount of trial and error regardless of how exact you calculate due to the myriad of cicumstances that can hav an impact on what you're trying to do.

But the short answer is I don't have the equaion you're looking for.

to be honest I alreday know how to fine tune my caloric intake I am just trying, to find an equation ,I saw, taking into account age gender activity height, BF% etc etc. To compare my "practical" calories with a theoritical model.

Thanks Upright
