Key Takeaways

Review a summary of your report and learn where your efforts can have the greatest impact.

Strengths
Opportunities
Action Items
Strengths
Your bone density is high

Your bone mineral density (BMD) is in the high range. BMD is the measurement of the amount of minerals (like calcium and phosphorus) found in your bone. Denser bones are associated with a lower risk of fracture.

Your visceral fat is low

Your visceral adipose tissue (VAT) is in the low range. Visceral fat, or "belly fat", is found around the liver, kidneys, spleen, and gut. Maintaining low amounts of visceral fat may help reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.

Your body fat % is decreasing over time! Subcutaneous fat is located just under the skin and is a store of energy. Continuing to lower your body fat and gain lean mass can help minimize your risk for cardio-metabolic disease, support metabolic function, and keep your hormones balanced.

Opportunities
Lean mass can improve

The current amount of lean mass can be increased. Lean mass includes non-fat tissue like muscles, organs, and connective tissue. Low lean mass can increase the risk of injury, osteoporosis, impaired metabolism, and reduce overall quality of life.

Body fat % can improve

The current amount of body fat can be reduced. Subcutaneous fat is located just under the skin and is a store of energy. Lowering body fat may help decrease your risk for cardio-metabolic diseases, improve metabolic function, and reduce hormone imbalances.

Consistency is king!

We all have opportunities to change our lifestyles for better health. Reflect on which areas you might have the most opportunity to focus on this month: sleep, stress, alcohol, ultra-processed food, or exercise - and take small steps towards improving them.

*Tip: adding is often better than restricting when it comes to behavior change. Small changes can have a big impact over time. Click here to learn more.

Action Items
Increase lean mass

Having more muscle mass and stronger muscles helps support and protect the body, especially as we age:

  • Minimum of (2) full-body strength training sessions per week to start.
  • Amino acids in dietary protein are the building blocks of lean mass. Aim for at LEAST 1 gram of protein/lb of lean mass each day.

More info: Muscle vs. lean: what does it mean?

Maintain low levels of visceral fat

Keeping visceral fat low can significantly reduce your risk of disease. Minimizing the consumption of alcohol and ultra-processed foods while ensuring you get adequate exercise and sleep will go a long way toward maintaining your health.

More info: VAT & your health risks

Nice work, your body fat % is decreasing! If your body fat is dropping, do your best to maintain lean mass by aiming for at least (2) sessions/week of full-body strength training + protein consumption of at least 1g/lb of lean mass/day.

Collapse section
Body Fat Percentage

Body fat percentage is the proportion of your total mass (weight) that is fat. For most people, this is primarily subcutaneous fat stored just under the skin. This metric also includes other types of fatty tissue like visceral fat, brown fat, and breast tissue.

What to know about fat?

Nutrition is often the biggest factor in reducing body fat. Focusing on adequate protein, a sustainable caloric deficit, and including as many healthy foods as possible is a good place to start.

Visceral Fat (VAT)

Visceral Adipose Tissue (or VAT) also known as “hidden” or “belly” fat forms around the organs. It is associated with an increased risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and some cancers.

How can I reduce visceral fat?

Maintaining low levels of visceral fat can seriously reduce your risk for chronic conditions such as heart disease, type-2 diabetes, and some forms of cancer. Reducing alcohol intake, smoking, refined sugars and carbohydrates, and ultra-processed foods with trans fats can help to decrease visceral fat.

Lean Mass (BMI-L)

Lean mass quantifies and measures how much of you is neither fat nor bone. Building and maintaining lean mass helps improve strength and metabolism, prevent injury, and ensure long-term mobility. Lean mass index (BMI-L) is your total lean mass in kilograms divided by your height in meters squared.

Limb/Appendicular Lean Mass (ALMI)

Appendicular lean mass index (ALMI) is a crucial longevity metric and a useful indicator of overall strength, mobility, and health. ALMI is also commonly used as an approximation of muscle mass in sarcopenia research and is calculated by dividing the lean mass from your arms and legs in kilograms by your height in meters squared.
