Estimate a body-fat percentage me a U.S. Navy circumference method.
UNDERSTAND A ANSWER
Aika ng calculated el ua ngerang?
A circumference method ng estimate a body composition el mle er a height me a neck me a waist measurement; a female equation ng also use a hip circumference. Ng screening estimate, diak el direct measurement.
U.S. Navy circumference estimateSechal: 86.010 log₁₀(waist − neck) − 70.041 log₁₀(height) + 36.76
A practical example
Er a sechal el 70 inch, me a 34 inch el waist me a 15 inch el neck, a equation ng estimate a body fat el medengei el 17.5%.
Assumptions, interpretation me a common mistake
Calculation assumptions
A circumference me a height ng measured er a inch.
A U.S. Navy circumference equation ng used.
A measurement ng taken consistently me a level tape el diak el compress a skin.
El ua ngerang el interpret a result
A result ng screening estimate el diak el direct measurement er a tissue.
A lean-mass share ng simply 100% minus estimated body fat.
A repeated measurement ng most useful el taem a ta el protocol me a condition ng used.
Common mistakes el mo avoid
A mixing a centimeter me a input el labeled er a inch.
A pulling a tape el too tightly òf measuring er a inconsistent location.
A overreacting er a small difference er a chelsel a normal measurement error.
