While any body fat percentage below 30 is perfectly healthy for a woman, it's expected that competitive athletes be among the leanest and sleekest people around. (healthfully.com)

A woman that weighs 125, and has a wrist measurement of 6.0, a waist measurement of 24, a hip measurement of 38, and a forearm measurement of 9.5 would calculate her body fat percentage in the following manner. (davedraper.com)
Step 11: ((125-93.29) x 100) divided by 125 = (31.37 x 100) divided by 125 = 3171 divided by 125= 25.368 (Body Fat Percentage). (davedraper.com)
Since I like to measure my progress, and that of others, in the shortest amount of time possible, I created a computer program that once you enter the required inputs, it calculates in a microsecond your lean body mass, fat mass, and body fat percentage. (davedraper.com)
Country's1
According to a study by the International Labor Organization (ILO), women accounted for about 28.3 percent of all managerial positions in the world in 2020, but in Jamaica, which was ranked in eighth place in the survey, approximately 56.7 percent of the country's managerial jobs are held by women.

More than 321 abortions were done every day on Hispanic women. (liveaction.org)
Between 2000 and 2016, the percentage of Hispanic women who obtained abortions fell slightly from 2000 and from a high in 2007. (liveaction.org)

Abortions8
Abortions on Black women have now reached their highest percentage since 2000, according to newly released data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). (liveaction.org)
The abortion data, released in November and analyzed by Live Action News , reveals that in 2016 , while Black women accounted for 38 percent of reported abortions , population estimates for 2016 (like 2015 ) show that African Americans made up just 12 percent of the population. (liveaction.org)
This news comes on the heels of deliberate efforts by the abortion lobby to market abortions among women of color as a positive. (liveaction.org)
According to the CDC, the percentage (below) is based on a total of 383,485 abortions reported among the 32 areas that met reporting standards for race/ethnicity. (liveaction.org)
An estimated 649 abortions were committed on Black women every single day. (liveaction.org)
Tragically, 2016 also saw the highest percentage of Black abortions since 2000. (liveaction.org)
As Live Action News previously documented, Planned Parenthood's effort to change the so-called "stigma" that surrounds abortion by "working with content creators on honest and authentic portrayals of abortion in film and television" will include creating more portrayals of "women of color (WOC)" obtaining abortions - something that should raise the eyebrows of anyone who knows about the eugenic history of Planned Parenthood. (liveaction.org)
The challenge is believed to be the first in the U.S. brought by women who have been denied abortions since the Supreme Court last year overturned Roe v. Wade, which for nearly 50 years had affirmed the constitutional right to an abortion. (abc4.com)
Candidates1
I'm absolutely confused when people say there's a pipeline problem or a lack of qualified [female] candidates, because what they really mean is they feel a qualified candidate looks, walks and talks like a man," Sposato said. (workingwomanreport.com)
Babies1
During two days of emotional testimony in an Austin courtroom, women gave wrenching accounts of learning their babies would not survive birth and being unable to travel long distances to states where abortion is still legal. (abc4.com)
Practices3
This testing may be appropriate in practices where women consistently visit their physician throughout pregnancy, but it is less feasible when analysis of serum ferritin concentration is unavailable or when prenatal care visits are sporadic. (cdc.gov)
This consists of health system responsiveness to the needs of women, education of the girl-child, quality health care, elimination of gender discrimination and harmful traditional practices, and an appreciation of the role of women in sustaining human life. (who.int)
In the African Region, many women are subjected to sociocultural discrimination as well as harmful traditional practices (HTPs) such as female genital mutilation4 (FGM), food taboos, early and forced marriage and pregnancy. (who.int)
Roles3
While women fared better as writers, producers and executive producers in 2018, only 1 percent of films "employed 10 or more women in the key behind-the-scenes roles considered," the study says. (salon.com)
This idea speaks to the notion that in a year in Hollywood where women are being heard and believed - at times even when accusing powerful men of sexual assault - this same arena still largely marginalizes women in creative, behind-the-scenes roles. (salon.com)
Additionally, the pay gap between women and men does not disappear when women take managerial roles. (jamaicans.com)
Contrast2
The survey's disheartening findings show a stark contrast to women in politics, where a record number of women were elected to Congress in 2018. (salon.com)

In 2015, the ILO's survey of 108 countries found that Jamaica had the highest proportion of female managers in the world with 59.3 percent of all managerial positions in the country held by women. (jamaicans.com)
The ILO study noted that women are generally better educated and more active in the workforce than ever, and they have increasingly made gains at the managerial level, their participation rate at the highest levels in business continues to lag behind that of male workers. (jamaicans.com)
The study found that there is a major lack of gender balance at the highest executive and board levels and that the larger the firm, the less likely there will be women in top executive positions. (jamaicans.com)

Pregnancy3
A Texas judge ruled Friday, Aug. 4, 2023, the state's abortion ban has proven too restrictive for women with serious pregnancy complications and must allow exceptions without doctors fearing the threat of criminal charges. (abc4.com)
State District Judge Jessica Mangrum's ruling granted a temporary injunction that prevents Texas from enforcing the ban against physicians who in their "good faith judgment" end a pregnancy that, because of complications, creates a risk of infection or is otherwise unsafe for the woman to continue. (abc4.com)
The injunction also applies to women who have a condition "exacerbated by pregnancy" who can't be effectively treated during their term. (abc4.com)
Lower2
For that matter, the proportion is number lower than the percentage of female directors from 1998 -- a full 20 years ago. (salon.com)
This means the lower half of female swimmers float more readily, and this reduces drag, according to Dr. David Costill, writing for U.S. Masters Swimming. (healthfully.com)
