kcal/day.
TOTAL DAILY ENERGY EXPENDITURE (TDEE)
BMR x Activity Factor
Formula of TDEE
You can easily figure out your DBW (Desired Body Weight) out of your Height and Current Weight and that way, you will know if you are overweight or underweight.
Using the NDAP Method (Nutritionist – Dieticians Association of the Philippines)
112 lbs. for 5 ft. +/- 4 lbs. for every in above or below 5 ft.
NDAP formula for males
106 lbs. for 5 ft. +/- 4 lbs. for every in above or below 5 ft.
NDAP formula for females
What is measured in this method is not only the body fatness but the distribution of these stored fats in the body around the waist and hip. This method will help you analyze the relationship between your waist and hip measurements and understand your current body type and health status.
WAIST TO HIP RATIO
WHR= WAIST/HIP
formula of waist to hip ratio
Are found in muscle tissues, skin and internal organs
Body Fat
These are the bones, muscles, water, and organs of the body
Non-fat mass
(1.20 x BMI) + (0.23 X age) - 10.8
