Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Calculate expected erythropoietic and performance benefits from altitude training or live-high-train-low protocols for competitive athletes

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Altitude training or live-high-train-low protocols — The altitude training or live-high-train-low protocols recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the altitude training benefit result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the altitude training or live-high-train-low protocols for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate expected erythropoietic and performance benefits from altitude training or live-high-train-low protocols for competitive athletes. Use the altitude training benefit result to inform your calculation.
