Want to lose a few pounds for a more toned look? Shift your focus to reducing body fat percentage for better results.
Do muscles weigh more than fat? You've probably heard muscle weighs more than fat. That's not entirely true—a kilo is a kilo. But a kilo of muscle takes up less space than a kilo of fat, which is what the idea refers to. Targeting fat percentage is key to a toned body.
Measure fat percentage
Most gyms offer body fat measurements. For reliable tracking, measure under the same conditions each time.
