How to properly recomp
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

The question is not whether you can do it. The real question is whether you want to keep doing it alone or if you are ready for a plan built around you, your lifestyle, and designed to finally deliver results. You know what to do, but let's make sure it works for your goals.
