UNDERSTANDING YOUR BODY METRICS Body Fat is a vital measurement of your overall health and fitness. A normal body fat level varies with age, activity level and gender. For example, it is normal for women to record up to 10% higher values than men. With increasing age, the body breaks down muscle mass which causes an increase in body fat levels. It is important to monitor your body fat as health problems can arise from either having too little or too much body fat.
Readings in the morning will show lower levels of hydration because the majority of fluid in your body will be stored in the central torso area. As the day progresses, the fluid becomes more evenly distributed through the limbs, increasing the accuracy of the readings.
TIPS FOR INCREASING ACCURACY The following tips will help make your readings more accurate and consistent: 1. Weigh yourself in the morning (either daily or weekly) to get weight only before you start your day. Test yourself in Fitness Mode before you eat your evening meal to get accurate readings of your body metrics. 2. Only use your scale to measure your progress. Optimally, users consult with their doctors in setting long term goals. 3. Choose the correct parameters when setting up your user profile.
