Lean muscle mass - Balance Hormone Institute

What is lean muscle mass?

Lean muscle mass refers to the weight of your muscles without including fat or water weight. Having an optimal amount of lean muscle is important for strength, metabolism, and overall health.

When you strength train and eat enough protein, your body builds new lean muscle tissue. This helps increase your resting metabolism, meaning you burn more calories throughout the day even at rest. More lean muscle means an efficient calorie-burning engine for your body!

Some key benefits of building lean muscle include:

• Increased metabolism and calorie burn
• Improved strength and physical performance
• Enhanced injury resilience
• Reduced risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures
• Greater confidence and self-esteem

Tips for Building Lean Muscle

• Follow a strength training program using weights 2-3x per week
• Eat enough protein - shoot for 0.5-1g per pound of body weight
• Sleep 7-9 hours per night for optimal recovery
• Manage stress levels with yoga, meditation, etc.
