Composition Analysis
Body Fat Estimator
Traditional scales don't distinguish between muscle and fat. Our tool uses the U.S. Navy body circumference method, which is a reliable alternative to expensive scans.
Measurement Tips
-
Consistency is Key
Measure at the same time of day, preferably in the morning before eating or exercising.
-
Tape Tension
The tape should be snug against the skin but not tight enough to indent the flesh.
-
Margin of Error
This method usually has a 3-4% margin of error compared to DEXA scans but is excellent for tracking trends.
