Fitness and Fatness: Body Mass Index versus Percent Body Fat

Journal of Clinical Exercise Physiology, 2019

The purpose of this study was to classify adults in the United States according to cardiovascular fitness (CVF), BMI, and body fat ...

Body fat mass index and fat free mass index in healthy college students

2017
AIM: It has been shown that body composition is determinant of health and mortality risk. Since body mass index (BMI) is not adequate measure of change in body fat mass and lean body mass, new indexes are proposed. However, reference values for specific populations are scarce.

Body composition interpretation. Contributions of the fat-free mass index and the body fat mass index.

Nutrition (Burbank, Los Angeles County, Calif.), 2004
Low and high body mass index (BMI) values have been shown to increase health risks and mortality and result in variations in fat-free mass (FFM) and body fat mass (BF). Currently, there are no published ranges for a fat-free mass index (FFMI; kg/m(2)), a body fat mass index (BFMI; kg/m(2)), and percentage of body fat (%BF).
