What is a reasonable goal for a friendly body-fat loss competition between me and my boyfriend? I am 28yrs., 5 ft. 8 in., 150 lbs, with 22%-24% body fat depending on the calculator used. My boyfriend is 27yrs., 5 ft. 11 in., 170 lbs with 24-30% body fat depending on calculator. We'd like to start exercising (we were both very athletic in high school and I also in college) but we have been pretty inactive for 3 years now. I'd love for an expert to tell me what would be a reasonable goal to set for body fat loss if we commit to exercising 3-4x per week 30-45 min. each time for 4 to 6 weeks (no diet modifications yet, just exercise). I know guys burn it off faster than girls, so I would like to know what would be a fair, comparable loss for each of us. That way we can see who really "won" and have some fun with it. Thanks so much for your help!

I have less than 2% body fat... Is that even healthy? I'd like to point out that I've determined this with several body fat calculators and i've re-checked my body measurements several times.

I would also be really grateful is anyone could give me any other tips on working out in a healthy sustainable way and anything else as I'm only a beginner! Thank you lots :)

Decreasing body fat percentage? So I've done a teeny tiny bit of research and think I have come up with a pretty good estimate of my body fat percentage using online calculators. I used 7 different calculators and averaged them all together and have found out that my body fat percentage is around 25.42%. I am an athlete and due to the needs of my sport (jumping, being quick and agile, etc.) I've decided it would be to my benefit to decrease my body fat percentage to about 18.5%. So, I would have to lose approximately 6.92% of my body mass (body fat). This would be around 8lbs. I do not want to lose any lean muscle mass; I am aiming to lose pure body fat. What is the best way to go about this? My schedule is tight, but I do have a gym membership close by... i.e. Sunday-practice (1-3) Monday-school(7-2), work (2:30-7), practice (8-10) Tuesday-school (7-2),off/work (230-7) Wednesday-school (7-2), work (2:30-5), practice (6:30-9:30) Thursday-school (7-2), off/work (2:30-7) Friday-school (7-2), work (2:30-6) *sorry... 6.92% of 143 (my weight): .0692 x 143=9.895... So about 10 lbs. is what I need to lose. I am female, 5'7", and 143lbs.

could a recruiter make the wrong calculations on Body Fat %.? He said I was at 44% which is unimaginable to me. I did calculations on the computer that said I was at 29% which means I can join right now, or if he is right, I have to lose 12%. Does anyone know of a Body Fat calculator that I can use online...that is accurate? Do you think a recruiter could have miscalculated? He had to call someone to do it for him. I'm 5'2, 165 lbs, 44 in hips, 32 in waist, 15 in neck, 6 in wrist, 10 in forearm.

What is the lowest body fat percent I can safely obtain? Im male, 17 going into the USMC soon, I weigh 130, 5'6'' tall, and according to an online body fat calculator I am 12% body fat, I work out for 1-2 hrs a day 5 days a week. I want to lose a little more body fat and was wondering what would be the lowest BF% I could SAFELY achieve and about how many pounds of weight would I need to lose to obtain this BF%? I already figured out that I need to take in only about 1700 calories and about 105 grams of protien a day. Also what kind of fat is good and bad? Should I try to take in a lot or little carbs? thanks for any advice in advace!!!

Accuracy of Body Fat Calculators? Hey I'm 24 year old male, always been heavy but packed on pounds in last year of uni. About 6' tall, and 215lbs. According to that, BMI is about 29.2, which isn't so bad I think. But then i tried a body fat calculator and that says 30% fat, when according to them i should be about 18%! I tried some other online calculators but they all give roughly the same answer. I've got a pretty big stomach (43" waist), but I'm generally heavy-set, so not too out of proportion. Are these online calculators just a bunch of bull? If it's just my belly size, is there any way I can reduce it without dieting? Can you get like targetted surgery or something like lipsuction for it?

Is this body fat calculator wrong? http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/library/blbodyfatcalculator.htm Woah. I only got 16.6%. My BMI is 22.7 and I'm not muscular at all. Do my bones just weigh a lot or something, or is the calculator I linked to just not right? I've never been "skinny" - thin, maybe, but never skinny. Spam is yucky. ):

Body fat of 5.76%! Impossible!?!?!? Hi I just calculated my body fat percentage using http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/body-fat-chart.php. I'm 156 pounds and have a waist of 28 inches the results were 5.76% This is impossible isn't it. You have a essential fat sorage of 2-5%.

Thanks I tried the link from MotoX86 the BFP result was 3.08% And yes I am very tall (6.2"/6.3") I tried the link from MotoX86 the BFP result was 3.08% And yes I am very tall (6.2"/6.3"), slim and rather muscular

Is 39% Body Fat Underweight Possible ? I've spent the last 3-4 years extremely inactive. Part of this is because I do work at home, the others are personal. In any event, I've spent a good deal of 90% of that time inactive. I'm very underweight -- about 115lbs at 5'11 and 19 years. My scale has a body fat % calculator (it just asks me for my age and height). I don't understand how it figures it out, but it does. It has me listed at 39% body fat. My friend says there is no way that is possible, but I am not so sure considering I've done little to nothing to maintain any real muscle on my body. Is this wrong, or is it really a realistic possibility? Keep in mind a woman with poor body fat is over 30%, and a man with poor body fat is around over 25% (or there about).

How do i find what my body fat percentage is? Online calculators dont work because if you get one inch wrong it can completely change everything. I dont ave one of those water things or those things that pinch your fat.

What is a good healthty fat burning diet? I'm currently about 183lbs in the morning.. my body fat calculator says I'm at 20% body fat. I only have chub around the mid section.

I heard something about chicken and rice? does anyone have suggestions?I want to get to 10% bodyfat. Or close.

Online body fat test? I did these two online body fat tests and i got 2 completely different answers. On the first one, (http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/) i got 31.86% which is counted as an obese percentage. The second one, (http://www.healthcentral.com/cholesterol/home-body-fat-test-2774-143.html) says i have 16.2%, which is at the athlete range. They kinda worried me cause ya know, no one ever wants to be obese, and my dad's side of the family has a history of type 2 diabetes, and i don't want diabetes when i grow up. I am currently 5' 0". (i'll probably never get any taller >_<) I weigh somewhere between 105-109 lbs. (i just got back from vegging out on vacation (: ... i was 105.6 before we left ) I'm almost 15 years old. I play softball and like to run, but i haven't been very much for the past 2 months or so since we've been on break. I'm not anorexic or anything but my waist is 31" if that helps. Are either of these tests accurate? On the links, take off the ) at the end of the links and they'll take you there. My bad. :)

How can I lose body fat, without losing weight? I don't think it would be healthy for me to lose additional weight. My BMI is around 19.8, which is on the lower end of normal. Unfortunately, over the last 12 years my breasts strangely shrank an entire cup size, and all my body fat got concentrated in my thighs, and it became uneven, appearing as cellulite. So, even at a low weight, I am concerned that my body fat is too high. Every time I do a body fat calculator, it says my body fat is really borderline. I already run every day of the week, lift weights, and see a nutritionist. You might think, well you're pretty thin, don't worry, but I don't want an unhealthy body fat level. Even someone who appears thin may have a higher body fat percentage than a heavier, or larger-looking person . I'd like to be able to wear a swimsuit, without dimply, jiggly thighs. I am so depressed about it. How can I get rid of all that stubborn fat in my thighs without sinking to some horrible, unattractive anorexic weight?

Body fat chart makes no sense for me...? i went on http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/ and calculated my body fat, but it make sno sense after... i weigh 118Ibs, my waist is 28' , my hips are 38', my wrist is 6 and my foram (im not sure where to mesure that but i guess im 9') so they said i had a Body Fat Percentage of 32.62%. im only 5'6 and im 16 years old. then they tell you to go see what your ideal weight would be and they calculate your wight and your body fata nd tell you how much weight youd have to lsoe to go to your perfect weigh and id have to go to 137Ibs.... are they saying i have too much body fat? i dont understand anything..

Do I have too much body fat? I'm 13 years old. I'm 5'3 and 110 pounds. I did a body fat calculator and it said I have 32.65% body fat. I eat 2000 to 2500 calories a day. When I stand up I can't see my toes and my feet are big because my belly is in the way. Is this bad? My belly waist is 30 inches. It used to be 26 inches. And I tried on some of my clothes yesterday that I haven't worn for a couple of months and there sort of tight on me. I have chubby thighs, legs, hips and belly. Am I getting fatter?

confused on my body fat %!? ? i'm 5'4 and weigh 136. my goal is 126- that would be ideal. however, i am in the healthy range as "healthy" under the BMI chart is up to 145 lbs. i just did the body fat calculator online though, and it said i was 31% body fat and put me in the obese category. .. i wear a 6/8. how can this be?

What is the ideal body fat percentage in a female athlete? According to a few online calculators, mine is 21.5. Is this an average or more than average body fat percentage? I'm 5'2'' at 111-113 lbs. and run 20 to 30 miles a week. 18 years old.

why does it tell me two different body fats? My tanita scale which measures my body fat while weighing me usually says I'm between 37-38% body fat. I did a few body fat calculators on some websites. one said I was 50% body fat, the other said 43.65%. I want a better idea of what my body fat is. which method is closer to the truth, the scale or the web site calculators?

Body Fat Percentage Question? I'm 12 years old, and I went on a body fat calculator website and measured all they asked, and it says: your body fat percentage is estimated to be 14.39 % using the U.S. Navy body fat formula, or 25.80 % using the formula developed by the YMCA. Is this healthy? I know I am only 12, but I'm not looking to lose weight. I just want to know if it's okay. Is it? Yes, I know, but it says they are both developed by two different measuring... people? i guess, so I have a feeling the 2nd one measures on a different 'number' basis, so that's healthy according to them. so yeah. i think the 1st is more accurate.

Are on-line Body Fat Percentage Calculators Accurate? I was just wondering how accurate they were as, although they take into account frame size and height, they do not take into account muscle mass. TIA.

My percent Body fat is Great, but my weight is obese- What does this mean? I went in and got my body fat measured and I am in the Healthy range. Yet my BMI puts me at level 1 obese. If I were to weight the highest for a healthy BMI, an online calculator says that I would be dramatically underweight. Ummm, this makes no sense to me. note: I realize that BMI isn't exact, but my original goal weight was 147 and on http://www.freeweightloss.com/calculator.html it says that would put me below my essential bodyfat. Now I'm sure that is off too- but it seems to be off by a TON! I'm not an athelete or anything.

Am i on the right track to burn body fat? I used a resting metabolism calculator online. It says i burn about 2000-2200 calories naturally each day.

Most accurate body fat estimator? Aside from water displacement, does anyone know the most accurate formula for calculating body fat percentage? I get a huge range. According the YMCA formula, I'm obese (funny because I'm also considered severely underweight for my height), and according to the U.S. Navy's formula, I'm an athlete (also far from accurate). Thanks! (Also, please do not direct me to BMI calculator. I know my BMI. I'm looking for an accurate body fat estimation.)

Body fat percentage!? I used this calculator and it said 32% fat! Is it accurate? I am 97 pounds and 5'3 Measurements: Waist: 27 ( I think, I havn't checked recently) Wrist: 6 Hip: 35 Forearm: 8.5 I am happy with my weight, but it just said 'body fat percentage'

BMI is 33.5 and body fat is 13-18%? Huh? These online calculators are contradicting themselves. On the BMI chart for it, it says I'm obese, but on the body fat chart, it says I'm not. Huh?! Haha. What the hell. It's done it on multiple calculators...

Lateral thigh trainer a good cardio workout? Having found a LLT collecting dust I was wondering if they're any good. I just did a body fat calculator thing and was shocked to find out i have 23% body fat! So I decided that, added to my weigh training, I should do some cardio. Lo and behold, the LLT sprung to my mind. So is it actually any good? I've heard it's boring, and from a go on it I'm not surprised, but how long/how good are results from it? cheers

Fitness help? What is a good way to get in shape? My son is 12 and he wants to get in shape. He is 5 feet five inches and ways 118 pounds. The BMI calculator is for adults only. How do you calculate % body fat as well.

BMI Calculator? So I am 23 5'3" and weigh 150... the BMI calculator says I am overweight... The problem here is I am not overweight lol. I have always had a broad curvy frame even as a girl. I currently do yoga M,W,F and run on T,Thr,Sat and do weights on cardio days. I eat a healthy preservative free vegetarian diet and drink plenty of water. When I tell people my weight they are usually surprised and say I look about 130. I know muscle weighs more than fat... So my question is what constitutes the accuracy of a BMI calculator... Perhaps if I didnt have a healthy lifestyle I would be genuinly overweight but I am not... And then... what is the best way for me to figure my body fat percentage? Thanks! *Commical side note* My weight is a sucky illusion too - I can never enter in Jell-o wrestling or fight night type situations at bars... because I weigh too much!

Am I REALLY overweight??? ok so I weigh 133 pounds, I am 5'1, and I have size G boobs. I have a little extra cushioning around my tummy. I go to the gym regularly for at least 1hr if not 2 hours at least 3 days a week. Every online calculator for BMI, Ideal Weight, Body Fat Percentage, etc. tells me that I am overweight!!! My "ideal" weight is between 100-115 pounds!! I really really think that those calculators are crap because I wear size 27 in jeans and size 2 or 4 in skirts!!! If I was 115 pounds like I'm "ideally" supposed to be, I'd be a size 0 if not less!!! Do you agree with me or am I crazy?? Am I really overweight?? are those calculators crap?? I don't really have THAT much extra cushioning around my stomach, its a little soft but pretty flat though so I guess it really isn't all that extra....

Am I Overweight...i always criticise myself.? Ever since early childhood, i always thought i was ..big. Although bullemia and similar diseases are most often associated with women i think i have a trace of it. I have been going nuts over the past few years. I play on my school football team, i run 3 miles every day, and i enjoy going to karate and getting a good workout every few days. Im 5'5 and 123 pounds, I did this fat calculator, which read that i have 8% body fat, and im still like freaking out! I keep telling myself im not big, but i dont know, i just feel so weird...

BMI Calculator? Is it just me or doesnt any one else feel that the BMI is one of the most worthless numbers when figureing out if some one is fat. I read all these questions on Answers "Am i fat?" and some one is like "Well according to your BMI you are" Lets look at this the BMI takes into account 2 varibles 1) weight 2) hight for me i was 5'8 185, according to my BMI i was fat. But according to my body fat % it was around 12 which is the low end of normal and i had a lot of muscle. So is it just me or does any one else think the BMI is worthless? Agree or disagree? explain

How do I efficiently lose weight for wrestling at my current fitness? Hi. So I weigh 118-120 lbs. Wrestling started two weeks ago and I have been trying to get down to 112 lbs. How 3 days before a match last week I was pretty much starving and sweating like crazy. I still didn't make weight. I was 113.9 lbs but they gave me a pound allowance, but that still made me .9 lbs over. They allowed to wrestle. So now I am back up to 118 lbs because I returned to eating 3 meals a day. I don't eat any obvious junk food such as chips and pop. But my problem is that everytime I cut weight and eat minimally, I feel light-headed and I have very low energy. What can I do to safely and efficiently lose weight so I can be at optimal strength at 112 lbs? To give you a better overview, I am 5'6", 118 lbs and my percent body fat is 7.5%. I checked this fat loss calculator and it said that with my weight and body fat, I can only afford to lose .64 lbs in fat. Help?

Opinions please? ok...summer is rolling around and I am trying to tone up and get "cut" as you could say. Some say I am small 5'11 at 155 pds. But as the BMI calculators say I have 21% body fat and I am trying to lower that to tone up my abs. I am on about 2600 calorie intake a day with 800 of those protein, 1600 carbs, and 400 fat.and I take whey protein twice a day with l-glutatmine 3 times a day. I go to the gym everyday and run about 2-3 miles + my workout weither it be arms or legs each day. My question is can I lose body fat to "show" my abs and also get "cut"/stronger? or do I have to choice one and go with it first?

Nationality, Faith, and Fat. Can anyone help with my question? In a recent issue of Rolling Stone magazine (4/6, page 51), a comment was made about an American Idol contestant, saying "It's comforting to have an Idol contestant who represents the majority of Americans: fat and religious." Granted, I only read RS because a former roomate never changed his address and his issues show up here, but I wonder if this is a fair characterization of Americans. If you feel comfortable doing so, can you post your nationality, faith, and BMI (Body Mass Index), which is a fair representation of an individual's weight? Here is a link to a BMI calculator: http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/bmi/adult_BMI/english_bmi_calculator/bmi_calculator.htm For the record, I am American, atheist, and have a BMI of 23. Can the faithful and faithless come forward and prove this statement wrong (or right?) I don't have much faith, but it's been an hour and I do have faith that you can do better than that. Let's see some results. Listen, I'm not saying I agree with this, just that this is the stereotype with which Americans seem to be viewed (even from within sometimes.)

i have a question about teen weight and stuff? ok so i have a lot of questions. What size should i wear at like hollister and american eagle and stuff. Im five foot four ish, 14 and weigh 115.

I need to lose fat (not weight) and build muscle quickly? Okay, so its not major life or death, but Im going on holiday in about two/three weeks, and I really want to feel good about my body. I am not overweight, I am roughly 11stone something and infact on those BMI calculators, i was healthy, nearly the one below, towards unhealthy! But i do have quite a fair amount of fat on me, mainly in the place that you would call the love handle area! Now anyway to burn this off, and build muscle? Without trying to lose weight? Any eating tips or workout plans for quick results, and prehaps longer term ideas? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

BOO B.M.I calculators? I strongly dislike BMI calculators, seriously! I actually did nude modeling a year back, my BMI is 25, but I have less then 6% body fat when a normal woman has 12%-22%. It makes me mad because not only are there other women out there who have muscles from sports and other activites the BMI causes people to hate there image. I wish there was a calculator that doesn't have BMI based on size

I want to lose weight in my face.? I have a fat looking face but in a BMI calculator I am 21. I am not muscular and am fat(25% on those scales that measure body fat percentage).
