Body fat rate refers to the ratio of total body fat output to total body weight, and body mass index is a reference index to reflect human quality through the ratio of height to weight, and it is also a common standard to consider a person's thinness and physical and mental health at this stage.
Measurement method: body mass index = weight (kg) ÷ height 2 (m); Body fat rate = 1.2× body mass index +0.23× age -5.4- 10.8× sex (male 1, female 0).
Normal standard: The standard of normal body fat rate is different for men and women. The normal body fat rate of adults is 12%-23% for men and 16%-27% for women. Some special professional groups, such as athletes, have different body fat rate standards from ordinary people. Relatively speaking, the body mass index is suitable for most normal people. According to the standard of China, 18.5%-23.9% is normal.
Body fat percentage and body mass index are only objective data and can be used as reference opinions, but it is suggested that we should not pay too much attention to the changes of values. A person's health is related to many factors, not only weight and fat, but also his own situation.
