The ratio of muscle to fat is far more important than the scale can reveal.
Body composition is one of the most obvious indicators of overall health.
It is the ratio of lean mass (good weight) to fat mass (bad weight if too much).
EZ Coach focuses on teaching you how to achieve a healthy body composition by combining exercise along with healthy foods.
People with too much body fat are more prone to Type II diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease and many other health related conditions.
The scale doesn’t measure body fat, it only measures total body weight so you can’t rely on the scale when determining body composition.
Beware of weight loss programs that only measure body weight.
Effective weight loss programs will help you lose body fat.
Your EZCOACH instructor will measure your body composition every workout cycle to ensure you are losing body FAT.
Print this chart to determine where you are currently and what body composition you must achieve to reach your goal.
Your progress report will indicate what your body composition is from one workout cycle to the next.
A simple and fast rule of thumb is that your waist size should be equal to, or less than half of your height in inches.
For example: If you are 5 foot 4 inches or 64 inches tall your waist size should not exceed 32 inches
