Trim Fat, Boost Health: Why Loving Your Body Starts with Lowering Body Fat
Why Lowering Body Fat Matters
Lowering body fat through regular workouts not only enhances how you look but also supercharges your health. Carrying excess fat—especially around your waist—can raise your risks for type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and certain cancers. Studies show even losing 3–5% of your body weight can meaningfully improve blood glucose and triglyceride levels; losing more (5–10%) can further improve blood pressure and cholesterol profile.
Why BNI (Body Fat Neutral Index) Should Be Ideal
Rather than obsessing over BMI, aim for an ideal body fat percentage within the “Fitness” or “Acceptable” range:
• Men: ~14–24% body fat (Fitness/Acceptable)
• Women: ~21–31% body fat (Fitness/Acceptable)
Body fat percentage accounts for muscle vs. fat—helping distinguish someone who lifts weights (higher BMI but low fat) from someone with low muscle mass but higher fat. This makes it a better indicator of health and fitness than BMI alone.
Regular Exercise: Your Best Ally
Consistent activity—combining cardio (like running or cycling) with strength training—boosts metabolism, preserves lean mass, and helps shift your body toward healthier fat levels. The result? Better energy, improved heart health, and increased vitality.
