About 56 kg of your 70 kg is lean mass by the Boer formula, leaving roughly 20 % as fat; the 3 formulas range from 52.8 to 56.5 kg.

Informazioni su Lean body mass calculator
Lean body mass (LBM) is body weight minus fat: muscle, bone, organs, skin and body water. It is estimated here from height, weight and sex with three regression formulas, Boer (1984), James (1976) and Hume (1966). Subtracting the Boer estimate from your weight gives an implied body fat percentage.
Clinicians use LBM to scale some drug doses and fluid volumes, and the Katch-McArdle equation uses it to estimate resting energy needs. For a man weighing 70 kg at 175 cm the three formulas give 52.8 to 56.5 kg, and Boer's 56.0 kg implies about 20 % body fat.
The formulas assume average body composition for a given height and weight, so they cannot see unusual muscle or fat. The James formula peaks and then falls as weight rises, which underestimates lean mass in obesity (Green and Duffull, 2002). A tape or skinfold measurement adds information about your own build.

Domande
Is lean body mass the same as muscle mass?
No. Lean body mass is everything that is not fat: muscle, bone, organs, skin, blood and body water. Skeletal muscle is the largest part but not all of it. In an MRI study of 468 adults, Janssen and colleagues (2000) measured skeletal muscle at 38.4 % of body weight in men and 30.6 % in women, while a man with 20 % body fat has lean mass equal to 80 % of his weight.
How is lean body mass calculated from height and weight?
With a regression formula fitted to measured body composition. Boer's is 0.407 × weight + 0.267 × height − 19.2 for men and 0.252 × weight + 0.473 × height − 48.3 for women, with weight in kg and height in cm. For a 60 kg woman 165 cm tall that gives 44.9 kg, which implies 25.2 % body fat, in the ACE average range for women.
Why does the James formula give low values for heavy people?
Its squared term, 128 × (weight ÷ height)² for men, grows faster than the 1.1 × weight term, so estimated lean mass peaks and then falls as weight rises. At 175 cm the peak for men is at 131.6 kg, and a 150 kg man gets 71.0 kg against Boer's 88.6 kg. Green and Duffull (2002) cautioned against using it as a size descriptor for obese patients.
What is a normal lean body mass percentage?
It is 100 % minus body fat percentage. The American Council on Exercise's average body fat ranges, 18–24 % for men and 25–31 % for women, correspond to lean mass of 76–82 % and 69–75 % of body weight. Athletes sit higher: ACE's athlete ranges of 6–13 % and 14–20 % fat mean 87–94 % and 80–86 % lean mass.
Quanto è preciso «Lean body mass calculator»?
La precisione dipende dai dati inseriti e dalle ipotesi del metodo. Il calcolo decimale usa 50 cifre significative, ma stime, metodi numerici e dati di origine possono essere meno precisi; l’arrotondamento visualizzato non elimina questi limiti. Esempi svolti verificati con fonti indipendenti: 4. Per esempio, «Man, 70 kg, 175 cm» viene verificato con Python 3.8 decimal: 0.407·70 + 0.267·175 − 19.2; 1.1·70 − 128·(70/175)²; 0.32810·70 + 0.33929·175 − 29.5336.
