Why does body composition matter?

Body composition is the ratio of fat to muscle in the body, and is often used to determine a person's overall level of health. Because muscle is denser than fat, a pound of muscle takes up less space than a pound of fat, which is why two people with the same height and weight might have vastly different body shapes. Body composition and body fat are important measurements when you are on a weight loss program.

When you are ready to make the change, The Body Shed is ready to help. Real Food. Bodyweight exercise. Only clean supplements if needed.

All we need from you is a decision and a positive mindset to start!

FUN FACT!
In honor of , I thought I would share a few potential health benefits of our friend tequila and its source....the agave plant!
1. Tequila is low calorie at 60 calories/shot vs a glass of white wine at 160 calories.
2. Tequila may be good for your bones. Agave contains substances capable of helping absorb calcium and magnesium!
3. Tequila may help you sleep better. It helps calm your nerves and anxiety and can help decrease chances of insomnia.
4. Tequila can be a colon cleanse. Agave has fructans that are not digestible so they help fight colon diseases by aiding with transport. They also help deliver drugs to your system to help calm IBS and Crohn's.
5. Tequila may help with weight loss. Agavins are natural sugars in the agave plant. They are not digestible and act as a fiber source. This prevents your blood sugar from rising and helps you feel fuller longer!

Everything in moderation! Cheers to a great Tequila day!
