Skinny Fat Figure - Causes, Examples, Photos and How to Fix It
What Causes a Skinny Fat Body Type
People with a skinny fat body type are often told by doctors that they are at a "healthy" weight, but in reality, they have so little muscle that their body fat simply compensates for the weight. In other words, on paper, their weight is fine, but their body composition is crap.
There are several key factors that contribute to this, but the main culprit is a poorly planned diet. Most people are focused on losing weight, which leads them to follow unrealistic diet plans. These plans are usually low in protein (or calories in general) and often involve excessive cardio without strength training.
The result? They lose weight and precious muscle mass in the process. Muscle - and the process of building it - is calorie-intensive. Plus, muscle tissue increases metabolism and serves as a storage site for glucose. Losing muscle makes your efforts to eat right even more difficult.
When you inevitably stop dieting, you will shrink in size and have lower calorie needs. (A larger person will need more calories for daily activity.) You will also lose muscle, which will also reduce your energy expenditure. So even if you eat the same amount of calories as before you started dieting, this will now mean that you are consuming a calorie surplus. And your body will be ready to store these calories as fat.

Not only does excess calories lead to fat gain, but most people on a strict diet also tend to overeat after they stop. A calorie surplus begins immediately with a sharp increase in calories. Calorie Calculator (for weight gain and weight loss) - https://nabor-massa.ru/kalkulyator-ra...
At this point, the dieter will have more fat and less muscle than before the diet. Out of desperation, people often look for an even more extreme diet with an even worse effect. The cycle repeats itself, and the person's body composition gets worse each time, because he never learned his lesson.
The solution is to improve body composition
When you go on a diet, you can't afford to let things go wrong, especially if you've already failed several times. Stop looking for quick fixes, because there are none, at least not without serious consequences.
Is there any good news?
You can fix your lack of muscle and excess body fat in one cycle. It may be a long cycle (6-8 months), but you can do it.
If Skinny Fat is a disease, then recomposition is the cure. You will lose fat and gain muscle at the same time, which is certainly possible if done correctly. (An already lean, muscular athlete will not be able to do this because most of his potential gains have already been achieved).
Having excess fat and regaining lost muscle is not that difficult, especially if you are relatively new to strength training.
