For many people, this section of the Result Sheet is one of their favorite sections.
Why? Because it allows you to categorize different body types more easily. This section makes it simple for you to give your clients a good, general idea about their current overall body composition and what changes they need to make.
How to read the numbers at the top

The percentages above the bar graphs allow you to compare your client to others of the same height and gender. While the healthy range varies based on the parameter, the 100% mark indicates the healthy average for the individual’s height and gender. So, if the weight bar increased to 130%, this would mean that the client is 30% above average.
Similarly, if your client’s weight bar extended to 70%, this would mean that they have 30% less mass than is considered the healthy average for their height.

This graph lets you show your client how their body composition compares against people of the same height and gender.
Muscle-Fat Analysis has three components:
WEIGHT
Total Body Weight
SKELETAL MUSCLE MASS (SMM)
The total weight of your client’s Skeletal Muscle. These are the muscles that can be grown and developed through exercise. Unlike LBM, which includes everything that isn’t body fat, you can view an increase in SMM as actual muscle gain.
BODY FAT MASS
This is how much body fat your client has, and combines both the surface level and internal fat.
The Muscle-Fat Analysis also tells you whether your client has a healthy balance of SMM and Body Fat Mass in respect to his or her weight.
Breaking It Down
The Muscle-Fat Analysis graph allows you to get a rough understanding of your client’s overall body composition in one quick glance. By looking at the lengths of each bar and how they compare to each other, you can better understand how to help your client reach their goals.
The Basic Body Types: “C-Shape”
A C-shaped individual has a shorter bar length for SMM than for Weight and Body Fat Mass. Although this is characteristic of someone who is overweight or obese, you may see this shape in someone who is within the healthy range or underweight, too.

Breaking it Down
You would want to advise a client with a Muscle-Fat Analysis graph that looks like this to reduce their Body Fat Mass (which would also lower their Weight) and increase their Skeletal Muscle Mass. Ultimately, the client should get their BFM as close to the recommeneded range as possible and SMM close to or above the recommended range.
The Basic Body Types: “I-Shape”
An I-shaped individual has a “balanced” body composition, meaning their Weight, Skeletal Muscle Mass, and Body Fat Mass bars roughly form a straight line.
Although people with this body composition are often at a healthy weight or body fat percentage, there are still areas in which they can focus on to maintain or improve overall health.
Breaking It Down
If you are working with a client who has an I-shaped body composition, you should find out their overall health goals before making any recommendations.
Typically, I-shaped individuals have a proportional muscle-fat balance, so they are in a good position to focus on gaining muscle mass or reducing body fat to improve their overall physique.
The Basic Body Types: “D-Shape”
A D-shaped person has a longer SMM bar than their Weight and Body Fat Mass bar. Usually, this is indicative of an “athletic” body type and is considered to be the ideal body composition shape, but if the Weight and Body Fat Mass bars are above the recommended ranges, then they should reduce their fat mass to get to the ideal range.

If you are working with a client who has this type of body composition, they likely already have specific fitness goals in mind that you can help them achieve.
Breaking It Down
Your client may want to improve their strength and shape. In this case, you would want to monitor their SMM bar and Body Fat Mass bars to make sure that SMM increases without a significant increase in Body Fat Mass.
Others may want to lose body fat and become leaner. For a client with this goal, you would want to monitor their Body Fat Mass while taking care to prevent the loss of SMM. If SMM losses become too significant, make the necessary adjustments.
