Definition
Recomposition is the slow process of replacing fat with muscle at roughly maintenance calories. It works best for beginners, returning lifters, and people with higher body fat — three groups where the body can build muscle from a small or zero surplus. Progress is slow but visible in the mirror, not the scale.
Real questions
Can advanced lifters recomp?
Yes, but slowly. Advanced lifters usually get better results alternating mini cuts and lean bulks.
