What is the normal body fat percentage?

The normal range of body fat percentage for women is approximately between 20% and 25%, and for men it is approximately between 15% and 18%. The specific body fat percentage is related to the nature of the individual's work. For athletes or fitness coaches, the body fat percentage is relatively low. Athletes and fitness coaches also have a certain impact on the fat percentage.

The normal range of your body fat percentage can be calculated based on your waist circumference and weight using a calculation formula. The formula for calculating the body fat percentage of a normal adult woman is: parameter a = waist circumference (cm) × 0.74 parameter b = body weight (kg) × 0.082 + 34.89 body fat weight (kg) = a - b body fat percentage = (total body fat weight ÷ body weight) × 100%. The formula for calculating body fat percentage for men is: parameter a = waist circumference (cm) × 0.74 parameter b = body weight (kg) × 0.082 + 44.74 body fat weight (kg) = a - b body fat percentage = (total body fat weight ÷ body weight) × 100%. After calculating your own body fat percentage, if it is too high, you may have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, gout or arthritis, etc. You must pay attention to it and go to the hospital for a comprehensive examination in time to help determine targeted treatment for the disease. If the body fat percentage is too low, it may cause endocrine disorders, premature ovarian failure, amenorrhea and other phenomena.
