Does anyone know what is the ideal water weight percentage?

    Good question! I have read it is about 50% but I dont know if there is much truth in that (it was in the booklet that came with my new scales). Mine is around 40% and I know I am constantly dehydrated.

    It depends on your body composition. Muscle has more water than fat so usually the lower your body fat the higher your water, but I have no idea what is ideal. All I know that out of 4 friends that had our body analysis the lower the fat % the higher the water %. From waht I can remember the % were between 65% and 75%
