Convert your measured body density into an estimated body fat percentage using the gold-standard Siri formula.
Estimated Body Fat Percentage:
14.789%
Note: Typical body density ranges from 1.010 to 1.090 for most adults.
The Siri equation is a widely used densitometric model that converts whole-body density into a percentage of fat mass.
Formula: BF% = ((4.95 / Density) - 4.50) × 100
BF% = ((4.95 / Density) - 4.50) × 100
Suppose a person has a measured body density of 1.050 g/cm³ from hydrostatic weighing.
It is a formula developed by William Siri in 1956 to estimate body composition based on the different densities of fat and fat-free mass.
Yes, because it relies on actual body density measurements rather than just height and weight ratios.
Use this when you have density data from methods like underwater weighing or air displacement plethysmography (Bod Pod).
