Guest guest Posted April 24, 2001 Report Share Posted April 24, 2001 This link didn't work for me either but if you go to a Search tool like Ask Jeeves and enter "Body Fat Calculator" you will get linked to lots of other sites that you can try. Good luck, . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2001 Report Share Posted April 24, 2001 Does anyone out there know how to calculate the amount of bodyfat lost. For instance, during the past 12 weeks my weight dropped from 207 to 184 and my bodyfat dropped from 30% to 24%. I keep reading about BFL participants and their " bodyfat lost " but need help with the calculation. Thanks, Rick (torontoan) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 24, 2001 Report Share Posted April 24, 2001 The link worked for me. Maybe you could try it again?

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 Tried it again and it worked. It had me 3% higher than the hydrostatic. I played with the numbers. I'm being penalized 2-3 inches for my big butt/top of quads (I go pretty heavy on squats). I also have a pretty thick back, but there's some fat back there too that I'd like to lose...but I really don't see my legs/butt getting any smaller (hope not anyway).

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2001 Report Share Posted April 25, 2001 I tried it too. It had me 2% higher than calipers. I found the recommendations interesting. Apparently, my healthy body fat target is higher than my current. It has said I should get 455 gms of carbs per day and 118 gms of protein and 3100 calories. Those recommendations are way off for BFL. Andyman > > > The link worked for me.
