âPremiseâ comes from two Latin words, meaning to put before. The premise is the foundation of your story-that single core statement, says James N. Frey, âof what happens to the characters as a result of the actions of a story.â.
The body of a healthy lean man is composed of roughly 62 percent water, 16 percent fat, 16 percent protein, 6 percent minerals, and less than 1 percent carbohydrate, along with very small amounts of vitamins and other miscellaneous substances.
Body fat percentage is influenced by age. Older men require more body fat to remain healthy. Men between the ages of 20 to 29 should be considered to have normal body fat between 16% to 20%. For men 30 to 39 the range is 19% to 22%, for men 40 to 49 the range is 21% to 24%, and 22% to 26% for men between 50 and 59. Men over 60 should have a 23% to 26% body fat percentage.
