Body Fat Percentage Chart

My body fat is 16.2%. I'm 16, Male, about 5'9 "and weighs £ 123.6. I looked for the fat cards on the internet and everyone is different. Some say that less than 20% and underfat Others say that 16% is ideal. Other cards are shockingly low and that the ideal body fat is 12-14%. I'm pretty athletic if it changes a lot.

ideal body fat is subjective. Health (for women) would be between 13% -29% depending on individuals. very athletic females (usually with more muscle) may be as low as 13% -17%, females form can have 19% to 23% body fat and the average (but still healthy) women could have up to 25% -29% body fat. 30% and 12% is overfat underfat.

SO 16% body fat is very thin in the range of sports for women. The only issue I see that could be a problem is the low body weight.

Hope this helps.

According to the American Dietetic Association, men should have 15-18 percent of body fat and women have 20 to 25 percent body fat. (Health of male athletes could be as low as 5-12 percent of body fat, and healthy female athletes could be as low as 10-20 per cent). The rate of body water for men should be about 55% and 51% of women. This seems a lot, but lean muscle contains 75% water, body fat is 25%, 22% of bone and lean muscle mass 75%

Do not worry you are fine. I'm young and years at the same height and about 5 pounds less and a little underweight, but you do not need to gain weight, you're a perfectly normal weight and healthy BMI. Also, if you're an athlete, you must have a lower BMI, what you do, then it is quite normal too.
Hope I helped = D

Well, let me first say that the mere fact that a table that tells you something does not mean that its geared towards everyone. 16% is ideal for your age and height. Women BMI ten to be a little higher than mens, but also all over you. Your actually lower your BMI is. 18-22% for women is great.
