The Formula

FFMI = Lean Mass (kg) ÷ Height (m)²; Normalized FFMI = FFMI + 6.1 × (1.8 − height m)

Understanding the FFMI (Fat-Free Mass Index) Calculator

Worked example: At 85 kg (187.4 lb), 180 cm (70.9 in), and 15% body fat, fat-free mass is 72.25 kg and FFMI is 22.30.

FFMI depends on the accuracy of body-fat input. It cannot determine steroid use or a personal natural-muscle limit. Height normalization is a comparison convention.
