RFM is a way of estimating the amount of total fat in an adult's body. Depending on your results, you are able to determine if you are obese, average, underweight, or more, according to medical professionals.
According to some studies, RFM is more accurate for males than BMI, but the same can not be said for females.
According to some sources, a healthy range for body fat in men is 18-24% while for women it is 25-31%.
There are separate formulas for men and women. If you are a male, the formula is RFM = 64 – (20 x height / waist circumference). For women, the formula is RFM = 76 – (20 x height / waist circumference).
