INSIGHT

Recomposition Is About Health, Not Just Looks

  • Body recomposition means losing fat while building muscle and it's more than an aesthetic goal.
  • Prioritizing muscle improves metabolic and mental health and prevents common fitness mistakes.
INSIGHT

Common Fitness Trends Undermine Results

  • Popular fitness marketing pushes endless cardio and light weights that don't build muscle.
  • That approach creates systemic stress, burnout, and joint pain which undermines progress.
ADVICE

Choose The Right Stimulus Over More Work

  • Do the right stimulus rather than more or harder workouts to avoid burnout.
  • Build a 'bank of muscle' so you can take time off without losing progress.
