Guide

Lean Body Mass vs Muscle Mass

Your lean mass number includes more than muscle. Learn what each one measures and which is better to track.

Read the guide →

Lean body mass is the weight of everything in your body except fat: muscle, bone, organs, skin and water. Two people with the same weight can have very different amounts of it.

The same weight can mean very different body compositions. At 180 lb, a person with 15% body fat carries about 69.4 kg of lean mass, while a person with 30% carries about 57.1 kg.

Same weight, different compositionTwo 80 kg people may have 64 kg or 52 kg of lean mass depending on body fat.
Trend over timeLean mass rising while weight is steady is the best sign of progress.

Frequently asked questions

What is a good lean mass percentage?
About 76–86% for men and 69–79% for women is a healthy range for most adults.
Does lean mass change with age?
It tends to decline from about age 30 unless you train and eat enough protein.
Is lean mass the same as muscle mass?
No. Lean mass includes muscle, bone, organs and water. Muscle is roughly half of it.
How do I get my body fat percentage?
Use a measured value from a DXA scan, smart scale or skinfold test if you have one. Otherwise use the Body Fat Calculator for an estimate.
Why is the chart only an estimate?
It uses only weight and body fat percentage, and body fat measurement itself has a margin of error of a few percent.
