Muscle is far higher water content than fat. So, fat tissue is about 10% water by weight ... Muscle is probably 75%
water.
Fat Tissue Is ~10% Water By Weight; Muscle Is ~75% Water
The water inside of cells is called, not surprisingly, intracellular fluid; and that accounts for two-thirds of your water weight. So, if we're talking about 60% of your weight is water, then two-thirds of that 60% is within the cells
themselves.
~60% of Your Weight Is Water, One-Third of Which Is Extracellular Fluid
About 67% of your total body water is inside cells, about 20% is in the interstitium—this area that exists between everything... about 8% is in the vascular system, and about 5% or thereabouts is basically everything else, including CSF and things like
that.
