Lean Mass Accrual Kinetics

Meaning

Lean Mass Accrual Kinetics refers to the dynamic rate and efficiency with which an individual synthesizes and accumulates metabolically active tissue, primarily skeletal muscle, relative to the rate of its breakdown. This measurement provides a quantitative assessment of the body’s anabolic capacity and is a critical biomarker of hormonal and metabolic health. Optimal kinetics are crucial for maintaining strength, functional independence, and a high-functioning metabolism throughout the lifespan.
