Able to track muscle growth on Fitbit app

There should be a way to track muscle not only fat. Muscle growth is equally important to many people wearing Fitbit. It would be nice to see this in the app and charted out just like fat currently is being shown.

Lean Mass is available as a line, in a chart and a table in the app's "Lean vs Fat" view under "Weight".

@GardentoadWhat else do you want to see in terms of muscle mass data?  I've been pretty happy with the Lean Mass reporting so far.

But, it would be nice to have an option to show Lean Mass alongside Weight on the "Today" screen.  I'd like to see a trendline on the Lean Mass chart.
And it would be nice to have a separate screen for Lean Mass, like the app already provides for fat, on the "Body Fat %" view.

I like the idea of elevating Lean Mass to a first class health metric, alongside Total Weight and body fat percentage.

(Oh, I see this post is 6 months old, as I write this.  But the point is still valid: The app could be doing more with Lean Mass data.  It's a health metric that users like me care about.)
