Interpretation of Results

Individual feedback and interpretation of results will be provided by the measuring unit immediately after the measuring of body fat. Analysis of body fat percentage, lean body tissue percentage and water percentage will be given.

Due in part to a demand for faster are easier methods of evaluating body composition, bioelectrical impedance analysis has become a widely used method of estimating percent body fat.
