What is Body Fat Percentage?
Your **body fat percentage** is the total mass of fat divided by your total body mass, multiplied by 100. It includes essential body fat (required for temperature regulation, organ cushioning, and hormonal function) and storage body fat (accumulated adipose tissue).
Unlike Body Mass Index (BMI), which only uses total weight and height, a body fat calculator distinguishes between muscle mass and fat mass, making it a highly useful metric for athletes and individuals undergoing fitness transformations.
