Burn Fat and Build Muscle Naturally

Tired of looking slim but feeling soft? At My Nuceria, we help you fix that.

You might appear thin on the outside, but still carry excess belly fat, low muscle tone, and constant fatigue. If that sounds familiar, you might be dealing with what experts call skinny fat. This is a common but misunderstood condition we treat daily at My Nuceria in Miami.

In this guide, we’ll explain skinny fat, how to know if you have it, and, most importantly, how to lose it.

What Is Skinny Fat?

Skinny fat, also called fat skinny or "normal weight obesity," describes people with a normal BMI. However, they have an unhealthy body composition. This means they have low muscle mass and high body fat, especially around the belly, hips, and thighs.

While your weight may appear “normal” on a scale, your body may still be at risk. This type of composition can lead to:

• Slowed metabolism
• Insulin resistance
• Hormonal imbalances
• Fatigue, brain fog, and low libido
• Early signs of metabolic syndrome

Skinny fat is common in both women and men. It often occurs in those who eat too little, skip strength training, or follow strict diets for too long.

How to Know If You’re Skinny Fat 

Not sure if this applies to you? Here are some clear signs:

• You look slim in clothes, but feel soft or flabby underneath
• You struggle to gain visible muscle even when you exercise
• You eat “healthy” but still feel tired, bloated, or weak
• You’ve lost weight, but your body still looks the same
• You don’t feel toned or firm, especially around your midsection

These signs are common in skinny-fat women, men, and even skinny-fat teens.

Why Skinny Fat Happens

A few root causes often seen in the clinic include:

• Under-eating or low-protein diets
• Too much cardio, not enough resistance training
• Chronic stress and poor sleep
• Low testosterone or thyroid function
• Long-term caloric restriction without rebalancing

The good news? Reversible with the right clinical support.

How to Lose Skinny Fat at My Nuceria

Here’s how we handle skinny fat in our Miami clinic. We use a medical-grade plan that helps build muscle, reduce fat, and promote long-term health.

1. BioBoost Injections

Our special BioBoost formula mixes amino acids, nutrients, and peptides. These ingredients help boost energy, improve recovery, and support lean muscle growth. This is ideal for patients who feel stuck in a skinny-fat cycle and need internal support to burn fat efficiently.

2. NAD+ IV Therapy

NAD+ fuels the mitochondria—the powerhouses of your cells. This therapy boosts metabolic function, improves hormone balance, enhances mental focus, and accelerates recovery.

3. GLP-1 Peptide Treatments

We offer medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, which are clinically proven to support fat loss and regulate appetite. These work exceptionally well for patients with visceral fat or signs of insulin resistance.

4. Custom Meal Planning

Using lab results and lifestyle habits, we create personalized meal plans to support muscle preservation and fat loss. This goes beyond trendy diets and focuses on long-term body recomposition.

FAQs

Can skinny fat lead to chronic illness?

Yes. It can contribute to insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, hormonal disorders, and inflammation if untreated.

Is it possible to reverse skinny fat without extreme dieting?

Absolutely. Most patients do better with more food, not less—as long as it’s balanced and includes enough protein.

What’s better: NAD+ or peptides?

They work best when combined. NAD+ repairs cellular function, while peptides support hormonal balance and appetite control.

How long does it take to see results?

Some changes begin in 4–6 weeks. Complete recomposition takes 8–12 weeks, depending on your body and consistency.
