Health and Fitness Tips

Health and Fitness Tips:

On a typical weight-loss diet, you will lose about 65% fat and 35% lean mass.
When you go off the diet, which most people do because it's so unsatisfying, you gain the weight back. You don't reverse to your original body composition. You gain back 80% fat but and only 20% lean mass.

Anti-aging literally offsets the aging process. Muscle gain and fat loss.
That's exactly the opposite of aging (muscle loss and fat gain).


For health and fitness, you should define your goals as “body fat percentage”.
This gauge reflects your fitness, health, appearance, and perceived personality
(how determined, decisive, and active you are).
Body fat percentage is the key for body transformation through change in body composition.
