Body recomposition means losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time. This is a slower process than weight loss or building muscle alone, but we like this as a goal because it makes you slow down and create sustainable habits and lifestyle changes. In this episode, Dr. Shannon and Dr. Payton discuss what to expect in the first 0-3 months, 4-6 months, 7 months-1 year, and beyond one year. They discuss common challenges within those benchmarks and how to overcome them.
