If an individual has a body weight of 180 pounds with a body fat percentage of 30%, what would be your recommended goal on a weight reduction program if this person desired to have a body fat of 20%?

157.5

Explanation:

The target body weight formula is FFM/(1-(desired %BF/100)). This formula is used to know the weight of a peron with a certain fat in their bodies.

So, the FFM is the free fat mass. For a person with 180punds with 30% of body fat, the Free fat mass is:

180 - 100%

x     - 30%

x=54

Now, 180-54= 126pounds

The desired percentage of body fat (desired %BF in the equation) is 20%. If we replace values in the formula the thing goes like this:

Target body weight= 126pounds / (1-(20/100))

Target body weight= 126pounds / (1-0.2)

Target body weight= 126pounds / (0.8)

Target body weight= 157.5pounds

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
