This article is about fat, bone, water and muscle content of the human body. For the body's chemical composition, see Composition of the human body. For the general composition of all organisms, see Biological organisation. In physical fitness, body composition is used to describe the percentages of fat, bone, water and muscle in human bodies. Because muscular tissue takes up less space in our body than fat tissue, our body composition, as well as our weight, determines leanness.
