Once Human features three Fitness ranges, that decides the passive buffs and debuffs your characters get by being in a particular range.

  • < 65 kg
    • Base Load: 80 kg
    • Melee Attack Speed: +15%
    • Melee Attack DMG: -10%
    • Max Stamina: +25
  • 65 kg to 85 kg
    • Base Load: 90 kg
    • Torso DMG Reduction: +10%
    • Stamina Recovery Speed: +20%
  • > 85 kg
    • Base Load: 100 kg
    • Melee Attack Speed: - 10%
    • Melee Attack DMG: +15%
    • Rolling Speed: -20%
    • Weapon Stability: +15%

Base load is nothing but your inventory size, and you can increase it by crafting backpack expansions. That said, while the best Fitness Range depends on your preference, I recommend either going for 65 to 85 kg or below 65 kg when you start the game.

You can gain weight in Once Human by eating food items with Corn Oil or such fatty ingredients. Alternatively, you can also carry high weight for a longer time in your inventory to increase your body weight.

Eating food items like French Fries, Fish & Chips, Cornbread, Canned Seafood In Oil, and others is a great way to gain weight fast. So as soon as you get your hands on Corn Oil, cook up some highly unhealthy food and start eating.
