CONCEPT OF BONE WEIGHT?

[Anonymous]

So from the full body weight there is a percentage of bone weight.

Comparing two females

A: 45kg B: 50kg

bone weight is unknown for both

so is it that the one who has more bone weight can lift more or do more pull ups?

Bones weight about the same for every adult. They are quite light, only 12% of the body weight if you are of a normal healthy BMI. So about 9kgs assuming you are avarage height.

The rest is muscles, blood, organs, fat...

Assuming both of the girls are of similiar height, one has slightly more muscles, or slightly more fat.

However bones have little to no effect on strength, or athletic abilities thats just muscles.

Your muscles are attached to your bones via tendons. What allows you to do more pull ups is having more capable muscles.

Lifting has nothing to do with bones, it has to do with muscle mass. The more muscle mass you have, the more you are going to be able to lift. Having healthy strong bones just keeps you from breaking bones easily.

People with higher muscle mass have usually higher bone density. However human bones are filled with tissue and not with air like bird bones, that's why bone density doesn't make much weight difference.
