Our skinny fat science research began in 2003, 3 years before the first mention of skinny fat in the official literature. Nearly 25 years later, our research shows that skinny fat is deficient genetically-influenced muscle, not too much fat within “safe”/normal-weight BMI. #skinnyfatscience - fellowone.com

- Comment on Skinny Fat is a Lack of Genetic Muscle - Beyond Normal-Weight Obesity - Skinny Fat Science 5 hours ago:
Yes, BMI is a limited, inaccurate proxy measure.
Lean body mass (LBM) – DEXA, InBody, etc. – is a composite of all non-fat body tissue. it is also not a direct measure of muscle tissue. Like BMI, LBM is an inaccurate proxy estimate at best, and grossly outdated.
As of September 13, 2026 –
There is no standardized way to measure total muscle tissue There is no standardized baseline average to compare #1 to There is no standardized baseline phenotype to compare #1 and #2 to There is no standardized way to measure total genetic muscle tissue from birth, or ever There is no standardized way to measure how much muscle tissue is added via exercise – resistance or extreme cardio (hypertrophy) There is no standardized way to measure how much muscle tissue is lost via poor diet, exercise, or lifestyle (atrophy) There is no standardized way to measure how much muscle tissue is lost via aging (sarcopenia)
