Katch–McArdle Formula
A BMR formula that uses lean body mass, often requiring a body fat estimate.
Definition
Katch–McArdle estimates BMR based on lean body mass rather than total body weight. It can be useful for people with higher muscle mass, but it depends on a reasonably accurate body fat estimate.
Example
If you know your body fat %, Katch–McArdle can personalize BMR using lean mass.
