What is Body Composition?
Body Composition is a method of breaking down the body into its core components: fats, proteins, minerals, and body water. It describes your weight more accurately and provides a better glimpse into your overall health than traditional methods. Body composition can accurately show changes in the fat mass, muscles mass, and body fat percentage.

Why do you need to understand your weight in terms of muscle and fat?
You may be aware of the normal weight ranges, but how do you get there? If you only focus on losing weight, you may end up losing muscle mass and eventually sabotage your efforts. By differentiating between muscle and fat, body composition removes the guesswork of determining what your weight fluctuations mean, be it muscle gain, fat loss, or anything in between.
Whatever your goals may be, an important thing to keep in mind during your health journey is that skinny does not always equal healthy.
What are the benefits of body composition?
- Find your baseline so you know what you need to lose, gain, or maintain.
- Assess your Percent Body Fat so you can focus on fat loss, not just weight loss.
- Maximize your workout routine to fit your unique health and fitness goals.
- Calculate your caloric needs and create a personalized nutrition plan.
- Set realistic goals, accurately monitor progress, and stay motivated.
- Make more educated decisions to improve your body composition.
How do you track your progress with body composition outputs?
With body composition, you can easily track progress and measure the effectiveness of your diet and exercise regimen. There are several essential body composition outputs that you can use to track your progress over time:
Skeletal Muscle Mass
(SMM) Skeletal Muscle Mass is important for mobility, posture, and strong immunity for long-term health. Body composition analysis shows you precisely how much Skeletal Muscle Mass you have in each body segment, so you can focus on building more muscle or correct imbalances to ensure you have a healthy muscle mass balance.
Body Fat %
(PBF) Percent Body Fat is a more accurate indicator of your health than your body weight or BMI because it tells you exactly how much fat makes up your total body weight. For a healthy body fat level, aim for a PBF within 10 – 20% for males, or 18 – 28% for females.
Total Body Water
Your Total Body Water (TBW) is divided into two groups: extracellular water (ECW), which is the water located outside your cells, and intracellular water (ICW), which is the water located within your cells. A healthy balance of body water is critical for good health. With body composition analysis, you can identify any changes and address them to maintain a healthy balance.
