About the course

Body composition is an essential aspect in the assessment of a person's fitness and health. Unlike total body weight, which only provides an overall figure, body composition provides a detailed view of the ratio of muscle mass, fat, bone and other components. This analysis allows for a more accurate understanding of physical fitness and can guide personalized interventions to improve health and athletic performance.
