That's really not bad at all for a girl.

It just confuses me that someone is thin as you could have 22.7% body fat. You must be like Steve. He eats more than me, but he's still skinny.

Body Comp tests basically just measure what you do have... not how much of it. So I have to have 100 percent of muscle and fat combined no matter what.... the test just measured which one i have more of. The reason mine in the 20's is because my arms don't have many muscles in them so all the excess skin is counted as fat, bringing up my entire number.

Based on the scale 16-23% is "low" amount body fat above 23% is "mid" range. Once you start getting below 16% you have the hard core athletes and tiny people. Male body builders still would probably have about 8% body fat.

To be acceptable health wise, girls shouldn't go below 12% and guys below 5%.

Although you didn't want to know all of that...lol. I found all of this pretty interesting though.

Steve's would probably be significantly less than mine because he's purely skin :-).

...and what can i say? I have a passion for carbohydrates and sweets. :-)
