Body Recomposition — Losing Fat While Keeping Muscle
For educational purposes only — not medical advice. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider. For adults 18+.
The scale only tells part of the story. 'Body recomposition' means losing fat while preserving or building muscle — which is why how you lose weight matters as much as how much. This guide explains the idea simply and sustainably.
