Your body fat percentage is simply the percentage of fat your body contains.

If you are 150 pounds and 10% fat, it means that your body consists of 15 pounds fat and 135 pounds lean body mass (bone, muscle, organ tissue, blood and everything else).

A certain amount of fat is essential to bodily functions. According to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, there are healthy body fat percentages based on your age. For people aged 20 to 39, women should aim for 21% to 32% of body fat. Men should have 8% to 19%. For people 40 to 59, women should fall between 23% to 33% and men should fall around 11% to 21%.

Body water declines as you age, but it will remain above 50 percent for most, if not all, of your lifetime.

The normal range for adult women varies between 45% and 60%. For men, the ideal body water percentage fluctuates between 50% and 65% of the total body.

Body age is calculated by weight, body fat percentage and skeletal muscle percentage to produce a guide to determine if your body age is above or below your actual calendar age.

If above your calendar age, changes can be made to your body composition, fitness level and diet.

BMI uses the following simple formula to indicate the ratio between weight and height of a person.

BMI = weight (lb) / height (inches) / height (inches) × 703

What is muscle mass?

Put simply, muscle mass is the amount of muscle in your body, including skeletal muscles, smooth muscles, and cardiac muscles. It can be measured as part of your total body composition, along with fat mass and bone mass.

Muscles are often described as the “engine” of your body’s fat and calorie burning mechanism. Increased muscle mass can lead to less body fat, a stronger immune system, improved energy levels, and reduced stress.

Generally, the normal range for muscle mass as follows:

Age
20-39
40-59
60-79

Women
63-75.5%
62-73.5%
60-72.5%

Men
75-89%
73-86%
70-84%

The body fat mass is the weight of fat in your body.

The body fat percentage is the weight of the body fat mass in relation to the total body weight. Body weight fulfills important functions, such as keeping your body warm or protecting your organs.

Fat surrounding internal organs

Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased levels of fat in the bloodstream, which can lead to common diseases such as hyperlipidemia and diabetes, which impairs the ability of insulin to transfer energy from the bloodstream and using it in cells.

In order to prevent or improve conditions of common diseases, it is important to try and reduce visceral fat levels to an acceptable level. People with high visceral fat levels tend to have large stomachs. However, this is not always the case and high visceral fat levels can lead to metabolic obesity.

Metabolic obesity (visceral obesity with normal weight) represents fat levels that are higher than average, even if a person’s weight is at or below the standard for their height.

Subcutaneous fat not only accumulates around the stomach but also around the upper arms, hips and thighs, and can cause a distortion of the body’s proportions.

Although not directly linked to increased risk of disease, it is thought to increase pressure on the heart and other complications.

Subcutaneous fat is not displayed in this monitor, but is included in the body fat percentage.

Skeletal muscle is attached to bones that is used to move the body.

Muscle is divided into two types, muscle in internal organs, such as the heart, and skeletal muscle attached to bones that is used to move the body. Skeletal muscle can be increased through exercise and other activity.

Increasing the ratio of skeletal muscle means that your body can burn energy more easily, which means that it is less likely to turn to fat, and makes it easier to lead an energetic lifestyle.

Your BMR score is a number which refers to how many calories you burn at rest.

Most people’s BMR is between 1000 – 2000. This means that they need to take in between 1000 – 2000 calories each day to fuel their basic functions while in a resting state.

Maintaining a fit and healthy body is more than just about weight.

Bone mass may not vary much in the short term, but it is important to track bone mass over time to look for changes in the long term.

Protein Mass is the amount of protein in the body.
