How to determine muscle bulk

Sport Hits: 144

The human body consists of two types of masses - fat and bezzhirovy. To the first carry all fatty tissues, to the second - bones, bodies and muscles. At weight loss it is very important to reduce reasonably fat and to add muscles. However in order that fight against excess weight brought positive results, it is necessary to calculate muscle bulk. It is necessary correctly to correct it in any given party.

It is required to you

Instruction

1. Take measuring devices. Begin to take measurements by means of the centimetric tape. Points in which it is necessary to perform measurement, are accurately defined. It is the shoulder circle, the forearm, the hip and the shin.

2. Measurements need to be taken only at observance of the number of conditions. So, for example, the grasp of the shoulder needs to be analyzed in the quiet state in that place where muscles are most of all developed. The forearm is measured at is free and relaxed to the hanging-down hand in the place of the greatest development of muscles. Measure the shin around the gastrocnemius muscle in that place where most of all muscles. For calculations for the hip grasp. Get up exactly so that body weight was evenly distributed on both legs, feet shoulder width apart. Clasp yourself with the centimetric tape under the buttock fold. The same rules are relevant also for measurement of hypodermic and fat folds.

3. Besides measure thickness of hypodermic fat folds vtech places. It is necessary to do it by either the kaliper, or the caliper. Further you need the special formula for determination of muscle bulk called the formula Mateyki. It looks as follows: M = Lr²k. Here the M means the mass of muscles, L - it human height is obligatory in centimeters. To in this formula is the constant equal 6.5.

4. Under r the average value of the circle of the shoulder, forearm, hip and shin disappears. In order that to receive it, you need to put results of measurements of circles of the shoulder, forearm, hip and shin. Then divide the turned-out number into 25.12. Further similar operation take measurements of hypodermic and fat folds concerning results. Put all values together, then divide the turned-out number into 100. Then subtract the second from the first calculation. Turned out value insert into the formula Mateyki instead of letter r.

5. If you need to define also the percentage number of muscles, then use such formula: (M/P) x 100. R in this case designates the weight of the person in kilograms.
