However, there is no universal body-fat percentage at which every woman will develop a thigh gap.
Two women with similar body-fat levels may have different amounts of fat around their inner thighs. One might have a visible gap, while the other might not.
This is because body composition is only one part of the picture.
It is also important to understand that the body cannot reliably be instructed to lose fat from one specific area. Exercises that work the inner thighs can strengthen the muscles in that region, but they do not selectively remove the fat covering those muscles.
Trying to force the body to develop a particular gap through extreme dieting can be harmful, especially if doing so requires reaching an unhealthy weight.
Healthy body composition is much more meaningful than achieving a specific visual feature.
