Description
When you think of somebody as being "in shape" or have a "healthy" body type, chances are your picturing the classic lean-toned body with slim but muscular arms & legs and a flat stomach. However this isn't the only way somebody with a healthy body fat percentage can look, oftentimes it manifests as the body composition commonly known as "skinny-fat". While this body composition is healthy in terms of BMI, and can signal progress for overweight individuals who are getting active in fitness, it's usually not what people who are doing 4-5 WODs per week want for themselves. In this episode Coach Justin will go over the science of why some people have this body type, as well as some strategies to make "skinny-fat" people LOOK more like they work out.00:00 - Intro00:33 - What is Skinny-Fat?02:05 - BMI As a Body Composition Metric02:57 - Lean Body Mass03:27 - Body Fat Percentage03:51 - Spot Reducing Body Fat & Spot Enhancing Muscle Mass05:10 - Why Some People Look Skinny-Fat06:10 - Having Too Much Body Fat Vs.
