Improved systems and methods for improving lean muscle mass monitoring of patients and for identifying and treating at least one of Cachexia or Sarcopenia are disclosed. The system may include a dynamometer provided to patients, the dynamometer being configured to perform remote monitoring. The dynamometer may be used and data may be collected by patients without the supervision of a healthcare professional. Using the collected data, lean muscle mass may be tracked over time, to provide fast and more accurate assessment of conditions. Using such an assessment, early treatment options can be targeted to patients to avoid progression into various disease states, for examples, more severe states of at least one of Cachexia or Sarcopenia.
