Understanding Lean Body Mass (LBM)

Lean Body Mass (LBM) represents the total weight of your body minus all the fat mass. It consists of your muscles, bones, internal organs, blood, and water. Unlike total body weight, LBM provides a much clearer picture of your physical composition and metabolic potential.

Metabolic Powerhouse

Muscle tissue is metabolically active, meaning a higher LBM leads to a higher Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). Our lab uses the Boer Formula, which is scientifically validated for estimating lean tissue in both men and women.
