What is a body recomposition assessment?
It checks whether the parts around your goal—energy direction, protein support, strength training, schedule fit, and progress measurement—are aligned enough to evaluate together.

ZenFit Recomp Check
A free body recomposition assessment that checks calories, protein, strength training, schedule fit, and progress tracking together—without a fake recomp score.
Start the free check →The assessment
A connected readout, not a single recomp score.
The interactive check asks only for the context needed to assess training, nutrition, schedule, and progress together. It runs locally and shows the result immediately after completion.
1. Energy direction
A rough calorie-direction comparison when the required inputs are present.
2. Protein support
A broad check of reported protein intake against body weight.
3. Strength-training structure
Frequency and progression method, without entering every exercise.
4. Real-life schedule fit
The gap between planned strength days and the days actually completed.
5. Progress measurement
Whether the current signals and time are enough to review a useful pattern.
Methodology
Why this is different from a body recomp calculator.
Uses fixed rules across five areas: rough energy direction, reported protein support, strength-training structure, the gap between planned and completed sessions, and the consistency of progress signals. It does not calculate body-fat percentage or produce a body-recomposition score.
If required information is missing, the result says so. It does not invent a body-fat estimate, a percentage score, a guaranteed timeline, or a clinical explanation.

Body recomposition assessment FAQs
Is this a body recomp calculator?
It is broader than a simple body recomp or calorie calculator. It does not return a body-fat estimate or a fake percentage; it gives fixed-rule statuses and a practical next priority.
How does it assess recomp calories?
When the needed inputs are present, it makes a rough energy comparison using a common BMR equation, activity context, and your current calorie intake. If sex or another required input is missing, it omits that calculation.
How much protein supports body recomposition?
The check uses your reported protein and body weight as a broad planning signal. It does not prescribe extreme protein targets, and it says when there is not enough information to judge support.
Why am I not seeing gym progress?
A useful first check is whether the training plan has a clear progression method, whether the planned sessions match the sessions you complete, and whether you have enough consistent progress data to review.
Should I cut or recomp?
The answer depends on your goal, current energy direction, training structure, schedule, and progress signals. This assessment helps identify the mismatch instead of choosing from a single calorie number.
Is this body recomposition assessment useful for women?
Yes. It uses the same general fitness rules for women and men and focuses on training, nutrition, schedule, and progress signals—not sex-specific medical claims.
