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.
Great bang for your buckMarch 7, 2010 Marie Garcia-Smith(ELLENSBURG, WA, US) It was pretty consistent with the weight and I think for it being able to give you a reference to BMI and fat percentage its a great price. If you want digital and the extra options this one is for you.

Quite a disappointment.
It doesnt really sense your feet or anything you have to put all the data manualy.
it doesnt turn on/off automatically, but you have to kick/press a button.
Also can't switch to Kg.
I didnt get consistent results +- 1lb which is not accurate!
returining this bad purchase....
Works Great!!February 24, 2010 JulieMarie(Chicago, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
At first, I didn't like it because to get all your correct measurements you have to stand on the scale with no socks on. But you only have to do that the first time or if you want to know all of your results like body fat etc. If you just want to weigh yourself you can keep you socks on.
The only thing that is a little annoying with this scale is that you have to turn it on instead of just stepping on it. It's not a big deal just a little annoying!!
Great scale for the moneyFebruary 22, 2010 Axmel Sthelin(Bowie, MD USA) I purchased this scale for my wife after ruining another one. She loves it. It is very simple to use, and the fact that you can track up to four users is an added benefit.
Consistent readingsFebruary 17, 2010 the consumer(New York City) It gives consistent readings and is a nice scale.
Im just giving it 3 stars instead of more because I frequently get an error message when I weigh myself.
Again, the readings are consisteng (I don't really care if its very accurate since Im trying to measure any changes) but the error messages make it take a bit too long.
