Body Composition - BMI Vs Body Fat %

This could be one of the most important episodes we've ever done.

Few people understand the importance of body composition, even fewer apply it. We have been indoctrinated with the importance of weight without any consideration for what that weight might consist of.

If someone gave you a kilo of money as a gift it would make a huge difference whether it was a kilo of pennies, or a kilo of £20 notes right?

Let's apply the same logic to our bodies, and while it may be harder to ascertain our body composition we must at least begin to talk more accurately about them.

Of course we will finish with some tips on what actions you can take that will make a positive impact on your body composition, and you probably won't believe how simple they are. There's no silver bullet answer for this stuff, don't expect to be blown away by a magic trick that no-one else knows.

When it comes to the care of your body it's the dull, simple stuff repeated over time that counts;

• Strength Train to build lean muscle
• Eat well, and nutritionally
• Hydrate
• Learn about you
• Stop comparing yourself to others.
