Body Composition Measurement Methods and Recovery Protocols for Muscle Injuries
The chapter delves into the accuracy and utility of in-body scans compared to other body composition measurement methods, emphasizing the importance of repeatability for tracking progress effectively. Personal experiences with DEXA and in-body scans showcase changes in lean body mass, body fat percentage, and visceral fat levels, discussing the challenges and benefits of gaining muscle mass and managing visceral fat. Furthermore, recovery protocols post-surgery, including microneedling for scars and the use of peptides like BPC 157 for muscle injuries, are explored, highlighting dosing frequency, efficacy, and the integration of physical therapy for optimal recovery outcomes.
