ENERGY CONSUMPTION
While energy consumption is
shown in the display in kcal,
one of the 9 segments appe-
ars in the graphics panel
below.
Energy consumption is calcu-
lated from the personal data
– corrected by a factor for the
relevant activity type - and
the distribution of body mass
measured.
Basic rate
+ performance rate
= energy consumption.
If you take in fewer kilocalo-
ries than your individual ener-
gy consumption, then your
body will react by losing
weight. Your weight will
increase if you take in more
calories.

Difference compared with your individual standard value
1 < - 15 % very low energy consumption
2 - 15 % low energy consumption
3-10%
4 - 5 % normal energy consumption
50%
6+5%
7 + 10 % high energy consumption
8+15%
9> +15%
Example:
Measured energy consumption = 2503 kcal.
This value exceeds the calculated normal energy consumption
by 5 %.
