Quite the discrepancy.. So I would say the calculation is pretty much useless, unless you know (even ball park) what your bf % is..

Isn't that what the Body Mass Index tells me (ball park anyway)? I'll add the book on my list after FLT but that rapid fat loss program is not designed to be a long term thing right? Right now, going on my body weight alone NROLFW says 150. If bmi is a good estimate of true body fat and its really 27% (or 25% as you suggested) then the recommended amount is probably the same yes? I haven't hit 150 except for 2 days, I'm lucky to hit 130 and I have to stay up later just to eat enough to get to that point.
Should I even ask why I'd want to cut out HIIT...I guess that is something specific to RFL...well definately will check into the book thanks for giving me a general idea though.
