Question about Female Bodyfat
Question about Female Bodyfat
Correct me if im wrong but dont women look great with a flat stomach at 14-15% bf? but a man having that BF has somewhat of a gut. Is it becuase women take into account their breast when they measure their bf or is there just a lot of BF underneath if she were to pinch on her "flat" stomach?
women have a LOT less muscle mass which means a high BF
Women just naturally have a higher BF%. You;re right mostly due to less muscle mass, higher estro levels and tits and ass.
LOL no, we measure at the quadricep, tricep, and just above the hip flexor. Women have a higher amount of essential body fat, at around 13%, with men at about 9%. Our breasts aren't part of the equation, as they shrink with the rest of us and are largely filled with fibrous mammary glands.

lol ok so i guess ur arms look small but alot more bf to muscle ratio, meaning if you were to pinch it, it would yield high bf.
but would a women with a flat stomach have higher bf than a man with a flat stomach since we have more mass in our abs (if you were only to measure the stomach)

but would a women with a flat stomach have higher bf than a man with a flat stomach since we have more mass in our abs (if you were only to measure the stomach) Well it depends...if she's skinny-fat, she'll look slender, but will yield a high BF because she has no muscle. Abdominal visibility changes from person to person, not between gender.
i thought they were bags filled with sand? LOL 40 year old virgin :D

And don't forget! We have to grow those babies!! Yes we do! Although to be honest all that shit about how having babies changes your body permanently is bull. I know because I bought into it for a long time before I got off my ass and started lifting heavy after giving birth.

I know because I bought into it for a long time before I got off my ass and started lifting heavy after giving birth. Yea, I actually used to do a step class with a pregger lady who lifted and did the step class while she was in labor...she was like hey, why not, it's just some cramps lol. Then she had the baby like the next day. She was in better shape than I was!

Yup, I'm actually angry that I wasted a few years not working out because other women were telling me all sorts of BS about how it's fruitless, I should embrace my "new figure" and how working out takes time away from the time I should be bonding with my child. I'm mad I tells ya. These women won't talk to me anymore btw because I called them on their bullshit awhile ago. These are the same women that slam me, if you remember our exchange from the other thread.
Misty would be the expert on female bodyfat.

I never really take advice from others, especially if they're argumentative about it. And you look awesome, so don't worry about it :)

And you look awesome, so don't worry about it :) Even worse than that Jim. They didn;t even do cardio. They were the stereitypical FAT suburban bitter housewives. Their main form of exercise was driving their kids to soccer practice.

Most of the women where i work seem to take pleasure in living the rumor that after the baby your figure goes to shit.

I kinda want to just print the article out and tote it wherever i go just to pull it out whenever some mis-educated mofo says those misconceptions to me.

Their main form of exercise was driving their kids to soccer practice. those mini-van soccer moms are pretty mean on the roads...and pretty pushy in the grocery store. That's why i shop at the grocery store on weekday nights :)

I hate that ish. Luckily, many of the women i work with on my team aren't like that. Some of the women on other teams/depts are :rolleyes:
