Balance and Barbells

How to properly recomp


Listen Later

In today’s episode of Balance and Barbells, I’m breaking down one of the most misunderstood goals in fitness: body recomposition.

Recomp, building muscle while losing fat, is possible, but it doesn’t happen with quick fixes, crash diets, or endless cardio. It takes a smart training plan, the right fueling strategy, and enough patience to let your body actually adapt.

Inside this episode, I’ll cover:

  • What body recomposition really means and how it’s different from traditional “weight loss”
  • How to structure your training for strength and muscle growth
  • The role of protein, carbs, and fats when your goal is to burn fat and build muscle at the same time
  • Why recomposition often takes longer than you expect — and how to set realistic goals
  • How to avoid the quick-fix trap and stay consistent long enough to actually see results
