Q&A - Fitness Monitors
What is the Bioelectrical Impedance Method?
Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is considered one of the most accurate and accessible methods of screening body fat. Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues having a high water content that conduct electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electric conductivity. The monitor sends an extremely weak electrical current through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. The weak electrical current is not felt while operating the Body Fat Analyzer. The monitor is calculated by a formula that includes five factors; electric resistance, height, weight, age and gender.
What is visceral fat?
Visceral fat is located around the organs. Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased level of fat in the bloodstream, which can lead to common conditions such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Sedentary life style causes excess visceral fat, and exercise can reduce it quicker than subcutaneous fat (fat located under skin).
What is resting metabolism?
Resting metabolism is the energy to maintain vital functions and it counts 60 to 70% of total energy consumption. Knowing your resting metabolism can help your dietplan. If you can increase daily activity while keeping food intake at resting metabolism level, you can lose weight.
What is skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is muscle attached to the bones that is used to move the body. If you do weight loss without exercise, you may lose skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is important to maintain your resting metabolism as well as your functionality. Monitoring skeletal muscle during weight loss is key to avoid weight rebound in the future.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Used it for seven months. Very consistent
Seems like the bad reviews resulted from higher fat and lower muscle readings than what was expected. I can't compare accuracy to other equipment. I can say that if you use it as a reference you will be very satisfied.

For the seven months that I've used it, the results have been consistent. It's been a great tool for losing fat weight and keeping muscle.

The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because of the memory. It may store 90 readings, but you can only view ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very satisfied
I am satisfied with this scale. I am not looking for something too fancy and although it has more sophisticated options, it does just what I wanted it to. I would recommend it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Machine
My scale arrived in about 3 days. It was simple to set up and I was weighing myself right away. The weight seemed accurate. The other functions I assume are working ok. The good thing about having my own scale with a body fat measurement, is once I get a baseline bodyfat reading I can alway refer back to this as the scale should read my body fat consistently. I am very happy with my scale. Also, great price. Much better than any in traditional stores.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - it's great and useful
We bought this one for watching weight index every day. The whole family likes playing it. It's great and useful.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Omron HBF-400 Body Fat Monitor and Scale
We have only used the weight part of the scale. It records fairly consistently, which is what we were looking for.
