Physical Composition Shift

Meaning

Physical Composition Shift refers to a significant, measurable, and often unfavorable change in the relative proportions of fat mass, lean body mass, and bone mineral density within the human body. This shift is a key clinical indicator of underlying hormonal imbalance, chronic metabolic dysfunction, or the progressive onset of age-related conditions like sarcopenia and increased central adiposity. The primary goal of most hormonal and wellness interventions is to induce a favorable shift, specifically decreasing fat mass while meticulously preserving or increasing valuable lean tissue.
