Thread: Body fat percentage

  1. #1

    Body fat percentage

    Has anyone had their body fat percentage measures recently?
    I had mine done on sat and measured a whopping 6%.

    I questioned the machine as i dont train half as hard as some people and enjoy a drink on regular occasions.

    Has anyone else been measured? And what were your findings?
    Oh when the blues...go marching in...

    Yeah, but that 2% is the 2% of you that isn't made up of fat?

    I was measured recently - 23.3%. It said "good" next to it - not sure what that means... or who they're comparing with ... Sounds like I'm fatty on here!

    I think you were measured for BMI socks, by the sound of your reading.

    googling doesn't help

    read in one article that up to 21% is average for women under 30 and elsewhere that 21-33% is a healthy range for women aged 20-40

    ah well, I don't know what mine is anyway probably a bit too much
