A body fat percentage calculator designed for bodybuilding is a digital tool to estimate the ratio of fat mass to total body mass. An example is a handheld device that uses bioelectrical impedance analysis to send a low-level electrical current through the body and calculate body fat percentage based on the resistance.
Calculating body fat percentage is crucial in bodybuilding as it helps monitor progress, adjust workout and nutrition plans, and prevent health risks. The advancement of body fat calipers and other measuring methods has revolutionized the accuracy and accessibility of body fat assessment.
