IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO KNOW BEFORE USING YOUR BODY FAT SCALE

Before using the scale, you should know ...  

1.  Why is it important to monitor percentage body fat (%BF)?

The absolute weight traditionally determines whether or not a person is obese. Weight 

change in itself does not indicate whether it was the weight of body fat or muscle that 

had changed. In weight management, it is desirable that muscle mass be maintained 

while body fat is lost. Thus, monitoring the percentage fat of the body is an important 

step toward successful weight management and body health. 

 

The optimal %BF of an individual varies according to age and gender. 

The table as follows may be used as a guide:
