Athletes will usually have lower values. Depending on the sport per formed, the training intensity and the
physical constitution, the results may still be below the stated stand ard values. Please note, however, that
there may be a risk to health in the case of extremely low values.
Body water content
The body water content in percent is normally within the following ranges:
Man
Age poor
10-100 <50%
Body fat contains relatively little water; therefore, body water content may be below the standard values in
persons with a high body fat percentage. On the other hand, some athletes may exceed the standard values
due to having low levels of fat and a high muscle percentage.
The body water calculation performed using this scale is not suitable for drawing medical conclusions, such
as in the case of age-related water retention. Consult your doctor where necessary. A high body water content
is generally desirable.
Muscle percentage
Muscle percentage is normally within the following ranges:
Man
average poor
good very good
