Calculate BMI
If you were a 5'10" 40 year old male weighing 245 pounds, calculate your BMI and energy recommendation
using the Harris-Benedict equation.
The Harris Benedict equation for men is:
66.5 + (13.75 x weight in kg) + (5.003 x height in cm) - (6.755 x age)
NOTE: 2.54 x inches = cm; 2.2 x pounds = kg
Describe what these measurements mean for this male.
