LBM is a component of body composition, calculated by subtracting body fat weight from total body weight. Loss of lean body mass (LBM) is a hall mark of aging and of acute and chronic illness. Loss of more than 40% of lean mass is not compatible with life. The present study was conducted in 30female adult subjects to explore relation between physical fitness using treadmill in relation to Lean Body Mass and the results revealed Positive correlation was observed in L1 to L3 load exercise, significant(5 per cent) negative correlation was observed between LBM and TEE, highly significant (1 per cent) correlation was observed between BMI and LBM, no correlation was observed between BMR and LBM, and no significant negative correlation was observed between Hb levels and LBM.
