There is no online tool that can do this.

You can calculate your BMI to work out how overweight you are compared to everyone else but muscle/fat composition can only be done on special scales or by someone using a caliper to check your body.

I can see you seem to be focused more on gym that food but just know that diet is 80% of your weight loss so you have to get that right.

I use the scales in Boots, you grip the handles and they somehow calculate your body fat % . . .

Hi Jack99

I use scales which give me my fat, visceral fat and muscle percentages. Although the accuracy might not be great I can see that gradually my fat percentage is going down. Daisy
