Sorry to be a newbee pest but I have a question on calculations. When figuring BMR it was originally stated:
Men's BMR in calories = 1 X Body weight in kilograms X 24 hours.
(or for those using imperial system)
1*(body wt/2.2)*24
Then I seem to remember somewhere a statement saying that it's not body weight but LBM.
Lets say I weigh 250 and my LBM is 197.
250/2.2=(113.64*24)*.9=2454
197/2.2=(89.55*24)*.9=1934
a difference of 500 cal.
Even with the .9 multiplier I'm still off. To get the same numbers if using LBM I'd have to use .78 for a multiplier.
Which is it - Body weight or Lean Body Mass?
I'm cutting so to me this is a biggie
Found a mistake (the multiplier) and edited this post.
