SCROLL DOWN FOR EASY CALCULATORS :)
This calculation is to determine your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate)
(p.s. - there are 12 inches in a foot! So if your 5`7`` you`d be 5x12+7= 67inches)
Women: BMR = 655 + ( 4.35 x weight in pounds ) + ( 4.7 x height in inches ) - ( 4.7 x age in years )
Men: BMR = 66 + ( 6.23 x weight in pounds ) + ( 12.7 x height in inches ) - ( 6.8 x age in year )
Once you have your BMR you can determine your calories needed per day to lose weight
Little or no exercise : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.2
Light exercise/sports 1-3 days/week: Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.375
Moderate exercise/sports 3-5 days/week : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.55
Hard exercise/sports 6-7 days a week : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.725
Very hard exercise/sports & physical job or 2x training : Calorie-Calculation = BMR x 1.9
To calculate your BMI (Body Mass Index) Which is Body Fat %:
BMI = ( Weight in Pounds / ( Height in inches ) x ( Height in inches ) ) x 703
ex: 130/67x67x703 = 20.35%
Here is a link to see where you stand with your known BMI
