Body Composition - Understanding What’s Behind The Numbers

Body Composition provides a more comprehensive health picture than just total body weight, by breaking it down into specific components like fat, muscle, bone, and water. This understanding allows individuals to track genuine health and fitness levels beyond mere numbers on a scale.



Key Components of Body Composition:


  •  Fat Mass: The total amount of fat in the body, including both essential (needed for bodily functions) and stored fat (excess fat). A healthy range is typically 18-24% for men and 25-31% for women.
  •  Skeletal Muscle Mass: The weight of muscles that can be developed through exercise. Higher muscle mass improves metabolism and enhances insulin sensitivity.
  • Body Water: Reflects muscle content, as a significant amount of water is housed within muscle tissue.
  • Bone Mass: The total amount of inorganic minerals dissolved in bone and body fluids, which helps form your bone structure.
