Thanks Doc. This fits in nicely with what TR is telling me. My local gym is bringing in one of those dunk tanks next month. I was going to sign up for that. Are those as accurate as a bodpod? I've never used anything other than calipers.

Second, is there a separate equation to figure TDEE using LBM or do you use the standard one and just substitute LBM for body weight?
