                                While body mass index (BMI) is a commonly used screening tool, it offers an incomplete picture of health, as two individuals with the same BMI can have vastly different body compositions. For a more detailed and precise understanding of fat, muscle, and bone, assessing body composition is crucial for personalizing health and fitness strategies.
