Where your FFMI sits

Where your FFMI sits: 22.1Excellent. Scale runs from 16 to 28.

What this means

FFMI (Fat-Free Mass Index) is like BMI but for muscle — it measures how much lean mass you carry relative to your height. Because it's height-adjusted and normalised, it lets you compare muscularity fairly between people of different sizes. Values near 25 represent the approximate ceiling for most drug-free men.

Recommendations

  • Use FFMI to set realistic long-term muscle-building goals — most naturals top out around 23–25.
  • Recheck it as your body-fat percentage changes; accuracy depends on a good body-fat estimate.

Watch out

  • The result is only as accurate as your body-fat input. An off estimate will skew your FFMI.
  • The '25 natural limit' is a population guideline, not a hard rule — genetics create outliers in both directions.
