good table here

obese for women is over 32 percent, and for men over 25 percent.

ranges for athletes etc also shown.

I got to almost 50% about a year ago - does that mean I was double obese?!? Probably nearer 15% now.

Useful info for us runners: in Running Injury-Free it's stated that you will be more prone to injury if you have >15% body fat for a man and >20% for a woman.

pants , how do you know you were 50% then?

i feel like 100% fat

is there any way of getting a rough idea of body yourself without having body fat scales as I'd be interested to know (definitely over the 32% I think!)

How accurate are body fat scales?

Howdy, Stranger!
