Body Mass Index - BMI Calculator
This BMI calculator uses your height and weight to determine a healthy weight raneg for your height. It is a great indicator for those who want a general undertstanding of proportions, however, please bear in mind that this calculation does not take into account muscle and body fat. Therefore, I would not recommend using BMI for those of you who have a lot of muscle for example bodybuilders, as it will not be an accurate representation of 'health'. |

Basal Metabolic Rate - BMR Calculator
your basal metabolic rate is an approximation (based on weight, height, age and gender) of the minimum amount of calories your body needs to keep functioning (heart beating, breathing). It does not take exercise into account, not even walking. whatever your goal, even losing weight you should never consume below this amount of calories |

The amount of calories, carbs, protein and fats in food, as well as, different vitamins and minerals found in food. This may be necessary in your fitness journey depending on your goal. Personally, I believe everyone could benefit from knowing a bit more about what we are eating! |

Calculate your daily water intake
Step 1: Find out your weight in pounds (you can easily convert on google)
Step 2: Multiply your weight by 67% (again easily done on google for those who are not mathematicians)
The answer to step 2 is the amount of water you should be drinking daily in OUNCES, so for those who want another measurement like litres just use trusty google and convert
Step 3: Now, all we need to do is adjust our amount daily based on how much exercise you are doing, because when we exercise we sweat more, we will need to drink more. For every 30 minutes you are exercising, you should add 12 ounces or 340 litres of water to your daily water intake (again if you are using a different measurement then convert this number on google).
You should now know your daily water intake and how to adjust your water intake daily.
Any questions please contact me!

Calculate your protein Intake:
Protein is an essential part of everyone's diet. Protein is used to make up cells all over your body, it is in charge of repairing and building new tissue and it is also an important component of your enzymes and hormones.
No matter how active you are, it is important to get enough protein in your daily diet. There are 9 essential amino acids (building blocks of protein) that we should be consuming through our diet.
Please use the table below to help give you an approximation of your daily protein needs.
