How is Body Fat Percent Different From Body Mass
Index?
When you go to a doctor, they will most likely
calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI).Your BMI
isnt directly correlated to your body fat
percentage it only factors in your height and
weight. It will give you the same reading. For
example, if I was six feet tall and 185 pounds
with a body fat percentage of 10, I would be put
in the same overweight category as a guy who
was six feet tall, 185 pounds, and a body fat
percentage of 25.
