Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Monitor

Domain Name Com's - : Omron HBF-306C Fat Loss Monitor


  

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Different readings but great for "Just wondering" situations..
I bought this product after having been taped for my body fat and told that in 2 months i had gaineds about 6-7% body fat. It was surprisingly easy to step up and use. After awhile though i started to use it more than once, testing back to back. One day i did it 5 times and got 5 different ratings. for body fat there was a .5 marginal difference(30.0-30.5). I had to choose best 3 out of 5 and stick with that! The good thing, i guess, was that my BMI stayed the same.

This item is great for people who want to get a gist of their BF and BMI.
For serious people with issues with weight or have a goal or BF/BMI to meet dont use this unless youve got a backup somewhere. I am buying another product to bounce this off with. I still use it because i love the quick and fast wishy-washy results!

So because i have to choose best 3 out of 5, and cant REALLY trust the output this product dishes, this product gets 3 out of 5 stars!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - It's fairly easy to use
I really needed a fat monitor because I was gaining muscle mass (hopefully) and my scale couldn't tell the difference between fat and muscle weight. I've seen these machines used before, but I've never set one myself. The moment my monitor came in the mail I immediately opened it up, put my information in (without reading the instructions first) and I knew my fat percentage within minutes of opening the box. You just have to make sure all the stats are up to date or you won't get the right numbers.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - More Accurate than my Other Scales
If you're trying to maintain a healthy weight - or reach one - then a fat monitor can be key. Being 150 pounds and 50% fat is much different than being 150 pounds at 20% fat!

If you haven't used an electronic fat monitor before, here is how they work. You enter your height and weight. This gives the monitor a rough idea of how long an electrical current should take to go in one end of you and out the other. Then you hold two plates in your hands, and it sends a quick electrical message in one hand and out the other. It doesn't hurt at all - you can't feel it at all. But by tracking the speed of the signal, the monitor knows how dense your body is. That tells it what percentage of you is fat, and what percentage is other stuff (muscle, water, etc.)

How is this helpful? Well, your aim as you lose weight is to be less and less fat. Fat is large, unhealthy and bulky. Muscle is slim and actively burns calories. Don't think of gaining muscle as bulking up like Conan. Think of it as gaining lean active muscle like a ballerina or a dancer. It means you can climb stairs more easily, lift items more easily, and your overall shape will be much slimmer.

So, how well does this Ormon monitor work? We've tried it out with many people now. It stores up to 9 settings inside it, and it's really easy for a guest to instantly use it as well. You just enter your height, weight and age. It instantly knows your BMI based on that since BMI is just weight and height. Then you hold the two sides for a few moments and it tells you your body fat as well. Quick, easy, painless. We use this several times a day, just to play with it and see the progress we're making.

There are many times when you're losing weight that it seems you "aren't losing weight". But really, you are converting from fat to muscle and fat is thick and light while muscle is thin and heavy. So for example you might go from a 38" waist to a 34" waist and still "weigh the same". This is good overall, because you are slimmer, healthier, and it means that going forward it'll be even easier for you to lose the remaining weight! So seeing that progression with your body fat can be very encouraging.

Highly recommended!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Pretty good for the price
I know it's probably not "accurate" but I'm looking to see the rate of fat loss, so it will work for that. The % stays nearly the same when I'm re-scanning to test it's accuracy that way (unless I start trying to mess it up).

The thing that confuses me is it has two options: Normal or Athletic. That helps it determine how much fat versus muscle it's detecting in your body. Normal will be a few percentage points higher on fat. So I did the formula and it put me at Athletic on the dot. (I got 60). I don't feel athletic! Maybe it doesn't mean "athletic" in the sense I'm thinking of. Just more active. I'll take a lower fat percentage though!

PROS: Very easy to use. Has a guest profile and 9 'saved' profiles. Gives you your BMI based on stats you put in (just handy...you could do this online too). It's inexpensive. Accurate enough. :) Great for tracking your progress.

CONS: Normal/Athletic mode is confusing. Doesn't work on someone who is extremely muscular. When I tried to change just one option on my profile #1 it made me put in all of the settings again.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Product
I ordered this and sent it to my dad and he simply loves the product and tells his friends about it. I'm thinking of purchasing one myself now.
