For men aged 20 to 39, anything above 25 per cent body fat is classed as obese. For men years old and above, it's 28 per cent. Generally considered to be excessive for men and women, 30 per cent body fat makes puts you in the 'at risk stage', which can lead to heart disease and cardiovascular issues.
We're sorry to say, you'll see no signs of six-pack abs at 30 per cent body fat. Again, this is the milestone to identifying whether or not you currently have an unhealthy physique. Not as dangerous as being above 30 per cent, but men with around 25 per cent body fat are still carrying significant excess weight.
However, they may be carrying an acceptable amount of muscle mass , too. Generally, a man with 25 per cent body fat will still look overweight, as the muscle beneath will be covered in subcutaneous fat. This is when things start to look a little more promising.
In this bracket, men are likely to look a little 'skinny fat' — a result of a poor muscle-to-body-fat ratio — and a little softer. But there's more to life than a six-pack, and a body fat percentage of up to 20 per cent is considered healthy and will help stave off diseases that are associated with higher levels of body fat. In a word — lean. Or at least, starting to look lean. Somewhere between Joe Wicks and Wolverine , maybe.
At around 15 per cent body fat, men will tend to start seeing muscular shape and definition , while noticing changes in body composition and fat stores. Your arms and shoulders are more vascular too. You're now on-track for a six-pack. As a general rule of thumb, 10 per cent body fat is the safest place to be. You need fat, after all, and having at least some body fat is absolutely vital for your body to operate normally.
Go below 10 per cent body fat and you enter the realm of bodybuilders , Love Island stars and elite-level athletes…. Obtaining the coveted single-digit body fat percentage is usually reserved for the likes of race-car drivers gunning for optimum weight, fitness models getting ready for a shoot — who, most likely, have also dehydrated and carb-depleted for the last week — or Hollywood actors for specific scenes.
What you must remember is that whilst single-digit is an aesthetically pleasing look for many, for the majority it's not practical to live by. In fact, even bodybuilders will often dip out of single-digit body fat only to shred hard in the weeks leading up to competition.
Muscle loss, organ shrinking, nervous system damage, dehydration and fragile bone structure are all very real risks of low body fat. If this is a goal of yours, you have to approach with caution and supervision.
If you're hoping to discover the best way to calculate your body fat percentage, bad news: there isn't one. Requirement for Security Measures. Security Questionnaire. Security Breach.
