Our successful way of testing and improving body composition will help you run faster, feel healthier, and look better. It is the key to optimal performance and appearance; and can help speed up fat loss and build muscle.

Body composition test determines how much of your body is lean tissue and how much is fat.

  • The non-fat part of your body is lean tissue.

It includes your muscle, water, bone and organs. Lean tissue is metabolically active the one that burns calories all day. The more lean tissue you have, the higher your resting metabolic rate will be.

  • The fat part of your body is body fat.

Body fat consists of essential body fat and storage fat. Storage fat is a reserve of energy and has a very low calorie demand. Women naturally have higher percentage of essential fat than men. It is essential for giving birth.

In the table below you can see average healthy body fat percentages for women and men at different age.
