Why should I use a Body Composition Monitor?
Maintaining a fit and healthy body is more than just about weight. Here are the benefits for tracking your total body composition with an Omron Full Body Sensor.
 
 
 
What is the Bioelectrical Impedance Method?
Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is considered one of the most accurate and accessible methods of screening body fat and other body composition measurements in the privacy of your own home. Within seconds, BI sends an extremely weak signal to measure the inside of your body. Muscle, blood, bone and body tissue have high water content, which means they conduct the BI signal easily. Body fat, however, stores no water, so the BI signal is blocked or impeded from easily traveling throughout the body. The blocked signal (or high impedance) indicates the presence of more body fat.
 
Power and Dimensions
The HBF-514C uses (4) AA batteries that last with normal use for about a year. The main unit measures 13 x 12 x 2.2 inches (L x W x H) and weighs 4.7 pounds.

    « Pretty Impressive »
    Nice equipment, gives pretty accurate readings, which can be misleading if you are heavily clothed or wearing some kind of jewellery/metals. Works best after a shower in towel only.
    Will update regarding long term usage.

    « A good body fat monitor/ scale »
    Works great, love all the functions. Bought it to motivate myself to improve my fitness/body weight. Has been a great tool. Wished Omron had model HBF-362 in the US which has similar functions but better looking display/graphics. Noticed HBF-362 is only available in asian market.

    « Great scale buy it! »
    This scale is a great buy. The extra 10-20 dollars is worth it for such a good scale with measurements the other scales don't have.

    « Not for any sort of athletes »
    Unfortunately after spending a couple hours trying to find the right body fat monitor I came away very disappointed with this one. It measured me at 22% body fat percent and a body age of 55 (whatever that means) which blew me away and even bummed me out. So I decided to step it up and get the professional hydrostatic test done at a local gym. These are far more accurate and I came away with a 7.7% body fat. That's a huge difference! Now I like to stay active and all but I had no idea there would be this much of a gap.
