Lean Body Mass Enhancement

Meaning

Lean Body Mass Enhancement is a clinical and physiological objective focused on increasing the mass of the body that is not composed of fat, which includes skeletal muscle, bone, and water. This is a crucial metric in hormonal health and longevity medicine, as maintaining or increasing lean body mass (LBM) is directly correlated with improved metabolic function, insulin sensitivity, bone mineral density, and overall functional capacity. Enhancement protocols typically integrate resistance training, optimized nutritional intake, and, where clinically indicated, the precise administration of anabolic hormones like testosterone or growth hormone. It represents a therapeutic strategy for combating sarcopenia and metabolic decline.
