Before you determine by how much to reduce your body fat percentage, you will need to know the following two pieces of information

- What is your current body fat percentage? What is your ideal body fat percentage

The vast majority of published information on the Internet indicates that your ideal range should be somewhere between ten percent and fifteen percent. In other words, of your total weight, no more than ten to fifteen percent of it should consist of fat.

So if you weigh one hundred fifty pounds and your body fat percentage is ten percent, then it means that you have fifteen pounds of fat on your body. Or if you weigh two hundred pounds and your body fat percentage is twenty-five percent, that means that you have fifty pounds of fat on your body

It is also possible to have too little fat. If you weigh one hundred twenty pounds and you only have five percent of body fat, then it means you only have six pounds of body fat.

So if you weigh two hundred pounds and have twenty five percent body fat, and you wish to bring it down to fifteen percent, you would think that you could get out a calculator and do some simple math to determine how much you should weigh, right?

Wrong. Body fat reduction or gain It is not a linear ratio. Using our example above, a two hundred pound person may achieve a fifteen percent ratio at one hundred fifty pounds, in which case the fat would account for twenty-two and a half pounds.

All you really need to do is find a weight loss program that specifically focuses on fat burning.
