How Can Body Composition Outputs Help You Track Your Progress?

Tracking your progress with body composition is crucial for the success of your

dietary and exercise strategies. Here are several key metrics for monitoring your

progress over time:

Percent Body Fat (PBF): PBF provides a more accurate health indicator than simply

weighing yourself or calculating your BMI, as it precisely measures the proportion of

your weight that is fat. Healthy PBF ranges are 10 – 20% for men and

18 – 28% for women.

Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM): SMM is crucial for mobility, posture, and overall

immunity. Body composition analysis allows you to see the exact amount of muscle

across your body, aiding in targeting muscle growth or correcting muscular

imbalances for balanced muscle mass.
