Mastering Body Recomposition: Shed Fat, Build Muscle

TL;DR Summary
Achieving simultaneous fat loss and muscle gain, known as body recomposition, may be possible according to a 2020 meta-data analysis. However, more research is needed to understand how this process works for different demographics. It is generally more effective to prioritize muscle building over fat loss, as building muscle increases metabolic rate and can lead to fat loss as a byproduct. To achieve this, prioritize strength training, consume adequate protein, and prioritize recovery through rest and sleep. Compound movements like squats, deadlifts, and presses are recommended for efficient muscle gain and fat loss.
