1. 25-31% for you. The older you get .. the more you get. Female athletes .... 14-20% When you say average.. you don't mean average compared to other girls... you mean average as in not overfat... don't you? I mean... 70% of kids are obese in the USA these days... with body fat above 32%.... obese is the new average.
2. don't strive to be average! unfortunately the "average" body fat of both teen boys and girls is steadily increasing. what is average now was not 20 years ago. for optimum health in the long and short term women under 25 should have 20-23% body fat.
