When we talk about weight loss, ideally what we are meaning is fat loss, not muscle loss. But the reality is that with all weight loss, there is a degree of muscle loss – somewhere in the range of 25-40%. I believe that instead of talking about weight loss, we should be discussing body composition – because improving body composition (decreasing fat mass, improving muscle mass) is truly what leads to improved fitness, cardiometabolic health and longevity.

Today’s episode covers all of this and more – with specific recommendations for what you can do to lose fat and maintain muscle with weight loss. I cover:

Body composition
Why is muscle loss a big deal
What can we do to prevent muscle loss while working on fat loss
- Protein intake (specific numbers to target in grams)
- Resistance training (simple exercise prescription)
How can we measure body composition
- DEXA
- InBody
- Home measurements
Recommendation for a great program – Muscles & Mindset
