Calculators and Data Desk, FitCalcs

FitCalcs' editorial desk builds and documents the calculators, citing the underlying equation and the UK dataset behind every number. Health-related tools are editorially reviewed, with figures cited to named UK sources.

What we cover on FitCalcs

Plain-English tools and data for the body, diet and training questions people search for: calorie and TDEE, BMI and waist-to-height, macros and protein, running pace and race-time prediction, heart-rate zones and strength standards, plus data pages showing how you compare to the UK population. We always cite the equation, such as Mifflin-St Jeor, Riegel or Karvonen, and the official UK source behind each benchmark.

How we review health content

Anything that touches health or diet is treated as informational only, not medical advice. Health-related tools and data pages are editorially reviewed, with health figures cited to named UK sources such as the NHS, NDNS and Sport England. Health tools carry a clear not-medical-advice notice and point you to your GP, a registered dietitian or NHS 111 where individual guidance is needed.

Background

The FitCalcs editorial desk sits within Best Business Loans Ltd, the company that owns and operates FitCalcs alongside its sister sites. It builds, documents and maintains the calculators and data pages, drawing on official UK sources such as the NHS Health Survey for England, Sport England Active Lives, the National Diet and Nutrition Survey, parkrun and the London Marathon.
