Body Fat API

healthy 3,042 Subscribers

Body-fat-percentage and body-composition maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The navy endpoint applies the US Navy circumference method — for men %BF = 495/(1.0324 − 0.19077·log10(waist − neck) + 0.15456·log10(height)) − 450, and for women a formula that adds the hip measurement — to estimate body fat from a tape measure alone, returning the percentage and the fitness category (essential, athletes, fitness, acceptable or obese); a man of 178 cm with a 40 cm neck and 90 cm waist reads about 18.7 %. The deurenberg endpoint gives the BMI-based estimate %BF = 1.20·BMI + 0.23·age − 10.8·(1 if male) − 5.4 from BMI or weight and height plus age. The composition endpoint splits a total weight into fat mass and lean (fat-free) mass from a body-fat percentage. Circumferences and height are in centimetres and weight in kilograms. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for fitness, wellness, gym, nutrition, body-tracking and health-education app developers, body-composition and progress-tracking tools, and coaching software. These are estimation formulas, not a substitute for DEXA or professional assessment. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is body-fat percentage; for body-mass index use a BMI API and for basal metabolic rate a BMR API.

BMI & Body Composition API

Body-composition maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The bmi endpoint computes the body mass index, BMI = weight/height², classifies it on the WHO scale (underweight, normal, overweight, obese) and returns the healthy weight range for the person's height. The idealweight endpoint computes the ideal body weight by the four classic formulas — Devine, Robinson, Miller and Hamwi — each a base weight plus an increment for every inch of height above five feet, and their average. The bodyfat endpoint estimates body-fat percentage by the US Navy circumference method from the neck and waist (and hip for women) and the height, classifies it from essential to high, and — given a weight — splits it into fat mass and lean mass. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for fitness, health and wellness app developers, body-tracking and coaching tools, gym and clinic dashboards, and self-assessment apps. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. Estimates only, not medical advice. 3 endpoints. This is body composition; for basal metabolic rate and calories use a BMR API.

Barbell & Lifting API

Barbell and weight-training maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically — the plate-loading and percentage numbers a lifter, coach or gym app works out at the rack. The plates endpoint solves the everyday gym puzzle of which plates go on each side for a target weight: 100 kg on a standard 20 kg bar means 40 kg a side, loaded heaviest first as a 25 and a 15; 102.5 kg adds the 1.25 micro-plate; and if a target is not reachable with the plates on hand it loads the closest it can and tells you the shortfall, so you never guess. It works in kilograms or pounds (225 lb on a 45 lb bar is two 45s a side), with a custom bar weight and a custom plate set. The percent endpoint turns a one-rep-max into the working weight you actually load: 80 % of a 100 kg max is 80 kg, and asking for a five-rep weight returns about 85.7 kg via the Epley formula (1RM = weight × (1 + reps ÷ 30)) — five reps sits near 86 % of max, ten reps near 75 %. The warmup endpoint builds a ramp from the empty bar to the working set at roughly 40, 55, 70 and 85 %, each rounded to a loadable increment, with the rep count dropping as the bar gets heavy. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for gym, strength-training, powerlifting and fitness app developers, workout-logger and coaching tools, and smart-rack and plate-calculator builders. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Exact maths, no simulation. Live, nothing stored. 3 compute endpoints. For one-rep-max estimation from a set use a strength API.

Calorie Burn API

Exercise calorie-burn maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically with the MET (metabolic-equivalent) method. The activity endpoint computes the calories burned by an activity, calories = MET × weight × hours, taking the MET value directly or from a named-activity table (walking, running, cycling, swimming, HIIT, rowing, yoga, weightlifting and more), and returns the calories per minute. The steps endpoint turns a step count into distance and calories: the stride is estimated from height (about 0.415 × height for walking, 0.65 for running), the distance is steps × stride, and the energy is the distance times bodyweight times a net cost of roughly 0.5 kcal/kg/km walking or 1.0 running. The duration endpoint works backwards, giving the minutes of an activity needed to burn a target number of calories. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for fitness, activity-tracking and weight-management app developers, workout and step-counter tools, and wellness dashboards. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. Estimates only. 3 endpoints. This is activity energy expenditure; for resting metabolism and TDEE use a BMR API.

Hydration Calculator API

Hydration and fluid-balance maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The daily endpoint estimates the daily fluid need from bodyweight (about 35 ml per kilogram), the minutes of exercise (about 12 ml per minute) and the climate (hot adds 500 ml, very hot 1000 ml, cold subtracts 200 ml), reported in millilitres, litres and 250 ml glasses. The sweat endpoint computes the sweat rate and the degree of dehydration from a before-and-after body weight, the fluid drunk and the duration — sweat loss = (pre − post) + intake − urine, with 1 kg of lost mass treated as 1 litre, and it flags when losses pass the 2 % of body mass where performance falls off. The rehydrate endpoint computes the post-exercise rehydration target, about 1.5 times the fluid deficit to cover ongoing urine losses, with a sodium note for larger losses. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for fitness, sports and wellness app developers, endurance-training and hydration-reminder tools, and health dashboards. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. General guidance, not medical advice. 3 endpoints. This is fluid balance; for basal calories use a BMR API and for heart-rate zones use a heart-rate API.
