What we often think is fat
loss is actually weight loss from water weight or metabolically
active muscle tissue. This is a very common effect experienced
by those who engage in fad or crash dieting, and actually makes
losing body fat even more difficult!
The measurement we need to focus on for fat loss is our
relative body fat percentage as this is the true measure of how
lean or fat we really are.
To estimate your body fat percentage* quickly
and easily:
1. Select "Man" or
"Woman"
2. Enter your height in inches (measure without shoes)
3. Enter your waist size in inches (measure at the
navel/smallest point)
4. Women only, enter your hips size in inches (measure at your
hips' largest point)
5. Enter your neck size in inches (measure at your neck's
largest point)
(Be as accurate as possible with your
measurements for the most accurate results)
