To estimate muscle growth:
\[ MG = \text{LBM} \times \left( \frac{\text{BF}}{100} \right) \times 0.5 \]
Where:
Muscle growth, also known as hypertrophy, is the increase in the size of muscle cells. It typically occurs as a result of physical training, such as weightlifting, and adequate nutrition, particularly protein intake. Muscle growth is influenced by factors such as genetics, hormone levels, and training intensity.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ MG = 150 \times \left( \frac{20}{100} \right) \times 0.5 = 15 \text{ pounds} \]
The Estimated Muscle Growth is 15 pounds.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ MG = 180 \times \left( \frac{25}{100} \right) \times 0.5 = 22.5 \text{ pounds} \]
The Estimated Muscle Growth is 22.5 pounds.
