Calculate maximum possible muscle mass with FFMI

The Fat Free Mass Index (FFMI) is a value that indicates how high the weight of muscles and organs is in relation to height. According to Men's Health, the FFMI is a better indicator of muscle mass than weight or height alone.

With the FFMI, it can be determined what the maximum possible muscle mass is for an individual. This value is usually between 22 and 25 for men. A higher value indicates that there is likely doping use.

To achieve maximum muscle mass, Men's Health advises training with heavy weights and eating enough protein. It is also important to rest and recover well between workouts.
