A woman who has built an appreciable amount of muscle (one or more years of weightlifting) will want to stay at or under 20 percent body fat to maintain the “athletic” look of toned arms, a tight stomach, shapely legs, a big butt, etc. For us guys, we need to stay at or under 10 percent for the look we’re usually after: fully visible abs, small waist, vascularity, “dense”-looking muscles, etc.
