Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I track Body Fat % instead of just BMI?
BMI only considers height and weight. It cannot distinguish between 5lbs of fat and 5lbs of muscle. Body fat percentage gives you an actual estimate of how much fat you are carrying, which is a much stronger indicator of metabolic health.
How accurate is the Navy Method for Body Fat?
The U.S. Navy Method is generally accurate to within 3-4% of DEXA scans (the gold standard) for most of the population. It's the most reliable method that doesn't require specialized medical equipment.
What is the Devine Formula for Ideal Weight?
The Devine formula is a widely used medical equation developed in 1974. It calculates an optimal body weight target based on your height and gender, originally used to determine proper medical dosages.
