Determine your total body density using displacement. This technique weighs your fat mass versus fat-free mass on a scale while you are submerged under water. This non-invasive method of measuring body fat is a reliable means of tracking body composition over time.
| Classification | Women | Men |
|---|---|---|
| Low Body Fat Risk | Under 15% | Under 5% |
| Ultra Lean | 15-18% | 5-8% |
| Lean | 18-22% | 8-12% |
| Moderately Lean | 22-30% | 12-20% |
| Excess Fat | 30-40% | 20-30% |
| High Body Fat Risk | Above 40% | Above 30% |
