Easiest Way to Understand Your Body Composition & Health

You can obsess about your weight, but ever wonder what the number on the scale actually tells you? Nothing much. The better way to understand your overall health lies in body composition. What’s the difference? Your weight is just your body’s total mass, whereas body composition is what that total mass is made of – i.e., muscle, bone, water, and fat. You could be in a healthy weight range, but if you live a sedentary lifestyle, your fat percentage would be higher than muscle and bone mass. On the other hand, if you have an active lifestyle, you could be the same weight, but your muscle percentage would be higher than fat. So, why does that matter? Knowing your body composition shows you if your body fat percentage is in a healthy range. Then you’ll know how to make the right changes to get your body goals, and over the long run, minimise the risks of diseases, like heart disease, diabetes, and high cholesterol. There are various ways to measure your body composition, but some methods c...
