[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 147722, member: 18023"] It's always been a moot subject for me, since I have never been below about 15% BF. And that's just a guess, my lightest weight as an adult 130 lbs. Looking at the internet, below 8% generally isn't healthy, and 2-5% body fat is considered essential. For men age 55, 20.9% BF is good, or between 9-19% BF, just depends on where you look and what assumptions you make about body density. [URL="https://www.builtlean.com/2010/08/03/ideal-body-fat-percentage-chart/"]Ideal Body Fat Percentage Chart 2019: How Lean Should You Be?[/URL] I have read numerous studies that indicate past 65 being a little overweight is healthier. Mostly it seems because if you do get really sick/injured, you have fat reserves to fall back on. IMO it's a debatable subject. I would like to get a dexa scan if I reach my target, somewhere consistently between 130-135. Even though I touched 135, it could have been because I was a bit dehydrated. [/QUOTE]
