Lean mass

About this calculator

Use this calculator for the Boer formula: men 0.407 × kg + 0.267 × cm − 19.2; women 0.252 × kg + 0.473 × cm − 48.3. Weight can be entered in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb); height in centimetres (cm) or inches (in). Lean mass is shown in kg or lb.

This is a formula, not a DEXA or Bod Pod scan. James and Hume are sibling equations we did not duplicate.

Sex: Chooses the Boer coefficients.

Weight: Scale weight, in kg or lb.

Height: Standing height, in cm or in.

Lean mass: Boer estimate of fat-free mass.
