bodyweight
Scale's reading, personally
Bodyweight refers to how much a person or animal weighs, typically measured in pounds or kilograms.
In fitness contexts, bodyweight describes exercises that use only the mass of one's own body for resistance rather than external weights or machines: pushups, squats, and other bodyweight exercises.
The term appears both as one word and as two words (body weight), with the single-word form more common when used as an adjective modifying a type of training or workout.
