Body fat percentage refers to the amount of body fat mass in regards to the total body weight
expressed as a percentage.

Visceral fat = fat surrounding internal organs
Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased levels
of fat in the bloodstream, which can lead to common diseases such as
hyperlipidemia and diabetes, which impairs the ability of insulin to transfer
energy from the bloodstream and using it in cells. In order to prevent or
improve conditions of common diseases, it is important to try and reduce
visceral fat levels to an acceptable level. People with high visceral fat
levels tend to have large stomachs. However, this is not always the case
and high visceral fat levels can lead to metabolic obesity. Metabolic
obesity (visceral obesity with normal weight) represents fat levels that are
higher than average, even if a person’s weight is at or below the standard
for their height.

Subcutaneous fat = fat below the skin
Subcutaneous fat not only accumulates around the stomach but also
around the upper arms, hips and thighs, and can cause a distortion of
the body’s proportions. Although not directly linked to increased risk
of disease, it is thought to increase pressure on the heart and other
complications. Subcutaneous fat is not displayed in this unit, but is
included in the body fat percentage.

Muscle is divided into two types, muscle in internal organs, such as the heart, and skeletal muscle
attached to bones that is used to move the body. Skeletal muscle can be increased through exercise
and other activity. Increasing the ratio of skeletal muscle means that body can burn energy more
easily, which means that it is less likely to turn to fat, and makes it easier to lead an energetic lifestyle.

Regardless of your activity level, a minimum level of caloric intake is required to sustain the body’s
everyday functions. Known as the resting metabolism, this indicates how many calories you need to
ingest in order to provide enough energy for your body to function.
