About Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI)
Understanding FFMI
- Fat-Free Mass Index: A metric that measures muscle mass relative to height, similar to BMI but for lean mass only
- Normalized FFMI: Adjusts your FFMI to a standard height of 180cm (5'11") for fair comparison
- Natural Limit: Research suggests FFMI values above 25 are uncommon without performance-enhancing substances
- Genetic Variation: Individual genetics can affect natural muscle-building potential
- Training History: Years of consistent training significantly impact achievable FFMI
FFMI Categories
- Below Average (< 18): Lower than typical muscle mass for height
- Average (18-20): Normal range for general population
- Above Average (20-22): Good muscle development from training
- Excellent (22-23): Competitive natural athlete level
- Superior (23-25): Near maximum natural potential
- Suspicious (25-26): Exceeds typical natural limits
- Unlikely Natural (> 26): Beyond established natural limits
