Ideal BF %

[didiit6]

I was curious as to what would be an ideal BF% for a lady. I want to get in a good range but dont want to go over the top. What would you recommend ?

15-18 is normal. So a little under 15 is lean for a lady

a healthy female should be under 24% body fat

if you are a fitness buff then getting under 18% is a great accomplishment

Health body fat levels for females are 18-25%

Healthy body fat levels for men are 8-12%

Somewhere in the 20's is very healthy. It will be different for everyone so as you lean down you can reevaluate your goals.
