Target Nutrition - Body Composition Assessment
Target Nutrition offers a body composition assessment service. This is carried out using a medical grade SECA body composition analyser, which is the gold standard for fat mass estimation. It measures fat mass, muscle mass (segmental muscle mass in torso and limbs), total body water and phase angle (the quality of your cells), therefore can support your health and performance goals. Having this data allows you to better tailor your fitness or training programme and to see how your diet can influence your health and body composition.
Body composition assessment can help with:
Monitoring changes in body composition – distinguishing between muscle gain and fat loss
Optimising body composition prior to your competition season
Returning to training and performance after injury
Detecting overtraining and exhaustion
£45 for initial assessment (20% reduction in price if you also book a nutrition consultation), follow-up assessments will be charged at £30.
It is useful to track changes in your body composition alongside your nutrition and training, every 6-8 weeks would be recommended.
