Balance Quality of Life with Body Metrics
Determining target weight should not be about chasing an 'ideal' weight, as this concept varies based on individual goals like running, powerlifting, or longevity. Instead, focus on how you feel and the quality of your life. Monitoring health markers, such as hormones and inflammatory levels, is important but shouldn’t lead to overthinking body weight. A healthy body fat percentage can indicate you are at a good weight for strength and performance. While pursuing a lower body fat percentage for aesthetic reasons is possible, it may compromise strength. Overall, prioritize the balance between physical health and quality of life.
