Somatotype Optimization Strategies

Meaning

Somatotype Optimization Strategies are clinically tailored, multi-modal interventions designed to favorably shift an individual’s inherent body composition profile, or somatotype, towards a state that promotes metabolic health and longevity. This approach recognizes that the distribution of muscle, bone, and fat mass is profoundly influenced by genetic and endocrine factors, necessitating an individualized plan. The clinical goal is to maximize lean body mass and minimize the accumulation of pathological visceral adiposity.
