I noticed that the color charts in my last post was abit small to read. I hope this is better. You may have noticed as your age increases, your acceptable body fat within these ranges increases as well. Why you ask? As we get older, there are physiological changes in our bodies so that our fat increases. There are 3 types of fat: subcutaneous (under the skin), visceral (around the organs), and intramuscular (in between muscle, like a marbled steak). The amount of subcutaneous body fat you have can stay the same, but the visceral and intramuscular fat increases as you age.
