Evaluation of the results
The percentage of bodyfat represents the in terms of percentage part of the complete body weight. There is no real advise
for this value, because it depends on gender and age.
Bodyfat is very important for your body, to ensure good functioning. It protects organs, hinges, regulates the body
temperature, stores vitamins and acts as a reserve for the body.
The following body fat percentages are guide values (contact your physician for further information).
MALE FEMALE
Age low normal high very high
10-39 < 8 8 - 20 20 - 25 > 25
40-59 < 11 11 - 22 22 - 28 > 28
60-80 < 13 13 - 25 25 - 30 > 30
A lower value is often found in athletes. Depending on the type of sports, training intensity and physical constitution, values
may result which are below the recommended values states. It should, however, be noted that there could be a danger to
health in the case of extremely low values.
A large part of the human body contains water. This bodywater can be found through the entire body. About 60% of the
bodymass consists of water with men. With women this is about 55% (caused by a higher bodyfat percentage).
The body water percentage is normally within the following ranges:
MALE FEMALE
Age poor good very good
10-15 < 58 58 - 72 > 72
16-30 < 53 53 - 67 > 67
31-60 < 47 47 - 61 > 61
61-80 < 42 42 - 56 > 56
Body fat contains relatively little water. Therefore persons with a high body fat percentage have body water percentages
below the recommended values. With endurance athletes, however, the recommended values could be exceeded due to
low fat percentages and high muscle percentage. This scale is unsuitable for measuring body water in order to draw medical
conclusions concerning age-related water retention, for example. If necessary ask your physician.
The BMI (Body Mass Index) is normally within the following ranges:
Under weight Normal Over weight Obese
< 18.5 18.5 ~25 25 ~30 > 30
The muscle percentage is normally within the following ranges:
Age MALE healthy FEMALE healthy
10-80 > 40 > 34
