Calculate
Your BMI (Body Mass Index)
The
Body Mass Index is a poor measurement and a controversially inaccurate
indicator to assess health. An
ideal BMI (which the measurement considers to be healthy) is between
20.5 and 21.5. However,
it makes absolutely no distinction between body weight from muscle
and body weight from fat which labels a broad segment of the athletic
and similar healthy populations as overweight and obese. It is limited
in its ability to predict deaths caused by heart attacks or strokes
(yet it's still used by Physicians). High BMIs (35 and over) are
linked to increased risk of cardiovascular events but not to increased
mortality overall. BMIs less than 20 are linked to increased risk
of cardiovascular events AND to total mortality.
Calculate
your BMR (Baso-Metabolic Rate)
Your
BMR, or basal metabolic rate (metabolism), is the energy (measured
in calories) expended by the body at rest to maintain normal bodily
functions. This continual work makes up about 60-70% of the calories
we use and includes the beating of our heart, respiration, and the
maintenance of body temperature.
Calculate
Your Target Heart Rate
To
get the maximum benefit from exercise, it is best to work at a pre-determined
target heart rate. Try these two calculators to get the best range
for your heart rate during your training.

Ideal
Body Weight and Mass
The
use of ideal body weight and mass calculators may serve as rough
guidelines to assess your body-type. However, they may be extremely
inaccurate to those who are athletic, engage in weight training
programs, or are simply genetically predisposed to larger (or much
smaller) body-types. For this reason it is advisable to use a 10-20%
range above and below your result. Both Male and Female calculators are available. Men may also prefer a more experimental
method of assessing body measurements by trying a calculator based
on wrist circumference called Ideal
Male Mass.
Estimated
