YOUR BODY WEIGHT & BODY FAT

Body Weight

Understanding our body shape, frame and type, we are better equipped to target ideal body weights AND how best for each of us to reach this goal
There are two target weights in our antiaging program:

1. Ideal Body Weight – a great first goal and can be reached using the wellness lifestyle program.
2. Antiaging Weight – caloric restriction and lower body weight are proven longevity methodologies.

So, start with attempting to reach your Ideal Body Weight First. This program does NOT focus on weight loss, although you will find that if you are overweight, you will lose weight during this program if you complete all the action items. Even a small weight loss of 10 to 20 pounds can improve your health, for example by lowering your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.

Body Fat Distribution

Now, look at where your body fat is predominantly stored:

• If it’s in the bottom, hip and thigh area, you are lucky. Fat in this area is not dangerous to health.
• If your extra fat is in the abdominal area, you are more prone to developing diabetes, high blood pressure or heart problems.

Use this ratio: Waist measurement [inches] : Hip measurement [inches]

Targets:

• Women - 0.8 or lower
• Men - 1 or lower
