Body fat percentage

The body fat percentage is printed out in percent. Too much body fat is unhealthy and unsightly. What’s more important is that an excessive body fat percentage is often linked to excessive blood lipid concentrations and an increased risk of various diseases such as diabetes, cardiac diseases, high blood pressure, etc.

A very low body fat percentage is also unhealthy. Besides subcutaneous fatty tissue, the body stores fat desposits to protect inner organs and to perform vital metabolic functions. Any reduction in these essential fat reserves may result in metabolic distur- bances. For example, if a woman's body fat values drop below 10%, her menstruation stops. In addition, the risk of osteoporosis rises.

Normal body fat percentage is dependent on age and especially sex. As the body gets older, there is a gradual decline in muscle mass and an increase in body fat percentage.

Women naturally have a fat percentage that is about 10% higher than men. People who do regular sport are often disappointed when the scale only registers a slow decrease in weight. Only when you measure the body fat percentage do you discover that your efforts are definitely worthwhile. Although you are not shedding weight to the extent you expected, there is a distinct conversion of fat into muscle mass. Determining the two values is the best way to demonstrate that you're on the way to achieving a healthy body.
