How Does My Professional
Body
Fat Monitor and
Scale Work?
Your new Professional Body Fat Monitor and Scale works on a prin-
cipal called “BIA” or bioelectrical impedance analysis. The scale
sends a low-level electric current through your body (you won’t feel
a thing!). While the current travels easily through lean muscle, it must
work harder to pass through fat. The harder the current works, the
higher “impedance value” it produces. To put it simply, the scale
plugs the impedance value into an equation along with your sex,
age, height and weight to calculate body fat %.
BIA values can be affected by hydration, food and liquid consump-
tion, recent exercise, and time of day, so it’s important to track your
progress regularly. And don’t worry about short-term fluctuations

the goal is long-term fitness and health!
Helpful Monitoring Tips:
l
Stick with your scale. Avoid weighing yourself on health club
scales or other scales, since measurements can vary among
devices.
l
Try to measure yourself at the same time of day, like first thing in
the morning.
l
Don’t eat or exercise for two hours before you get on the scale.
l
Don’t get upset by short-term weight gains or plateaus.
Remember, the goal is long-term fitness.
l
Once you reach your desired weight and body fat
%,
use your
body fat scale once a week to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
