Lean body mass (LBM) is the weight of your body minus the fat. It includes muscles, bones, organs, and water. Knowing your LBM is important for tailoring nutritional and fitness plans, as it provides insight into your muscle mass and overall body composition.
Our calculator uses the Boer formula to estimate lean body mass:
For males: LBM = (0.407 × Weight in kg) + (0.267 × Height in cm) - 19.2
For females: LBM = (0.252 × Weight in kg) + (0.473 × Height in cm) - 48.3
The calculated lean body mass is displayed in kilograms (kg). A higher LBM generally indicates greater muscle mass, which can be beneficial for metabolism and overall fitness. Use this information to adjust your diet and exercise regimen accordingly.
By understanding your lean body mass, you can make more informed decisions about your nutrition and fitness routine. Whether you are looking to increase muscle mass, lose weight, or simply maintain a healthy body composition, our Lean Body Mass Calculator is an essential tool in your wellness journey. Empower yourself with accurate data and work towards achieving your health goals.
