How To Boost Build Muscle-Part 4: Tracking Progress
I am often asked: How do I increase muscle mass?
Increasing muscle mass is essential to prevent bone loss, to boost metabolism naturally, prevent injury, to maintain healthy weight, and for overall health.
Losing weight is virtually impossible without building muscle mass.
Building muscle mass DOES NOT mean you will “bulk up”. A healthy skeletal muscle mass is a key component of health.
There are four important ways to build skeletal muscle mass.
1) Strength training exercises such as using body weight, dumbbells, free weights, kettle bells, or resistance bands
2) Whole-foods, plant-based nourishment
3) Rest and restorative sleep
4) Track lean muscle mass, segmental muscle balance, and basal metabolic rate (Watch video)
The key to success is finding a community, or ecosystem, to keep you accountable to your goals and celebrate your successes.
What makes our ecosystem different? We are body-positive and use metrics beyond the scale to track your progress, achievements, and success. We can track your skeletal muscle mass and basal metabolic rate using our Inbody Body Composition Analyzer.
