To measure your LBM (Lean Body Mass) you need to know your bodyfat % and your weight. (Example of the process; Bodyfat = 13% Body weight = 150lbs 150 x 0.13 = 19.5lbs of bodyfat. 150 - 19.5 = 130.5lbs LBM.) To measure bodyfat you need skinfold calipers and scales. To measure your weight you need scales. To measure the girth of your arms, chest, etc. you need measuring tape.
