    Glossary Muscle Mass

    total amount of muscle tissue in the body

    Muscle mass refers to the total amount of muscle tissue in the body, encompassing the size, volume, and bulk of muscles. It is a critical factor in overall physical strength, metabolic rate, and functional capacity. Increased muscle mass, often achieved through resistance training and proper nutrition, is associated with improved health outcomes, including better glucose metabolism and reduced risk of chronic diseases.
