About this video:
Your body fat percentage is one of the most accurate ways to estimate how lean you are and how good your physique looks. But it’s difficult to estimate body fat accurately. Also, how a body fat percentage looks on you depends a lot on how much muscle you have. Another factor that adds to the confusion is the smart scales people use to measure body fat percentage at home. These devices are far from accurate and can vary up to 8%. The same goes for machines at the gym. Even the best tools we have, like a DEXA scan, still have some inaccuracy. All of this makes it more difficult to find out your real body fat percentage.
Because there’s a lot of confusion around body fat percentages in this video I decided to show real examples of different body fat percentages. You’ll see physiques from 5% body fat to 40% body fat and, ones with very little muscle mass and some who are very muscular. This will give you an accurate idea of how a body fat percentage looks, help you set realistic goals and have the right expectations for what is achievable.
