FAQs for body fat weighing

1. What should I do if the body fat weighing is not accurate?

Answer: The accuracy of weighing depends on the position of your equipment. The first thing to do is to make sure that the device is placed on a solid and flat surface. Also pay attention to the weighing method:

(1) Take off your shoes and socks when measuring.

(2) Do not leave or shake at will when measuring.

(3) Wait for the display data to be displayed before leaving.

(4) The next weighing needs to wait for 2-3 seconds after the screen goes out.

2. Who is not suitable for using the body fat scale?

Answer: Currently, it is not recommended for the following groups to undergo physical data testing:

(1) Minors.

(2) Pregnant mothers.

(3) People with devices such as pacemakers installed.

(4) Professional bodybuilders and athletes.

3. When is the weighing?

Answer: The best time for testing is twice a day, in the morning after defecation and before bathing, and in the evening before bathing. At the same time, due to the metabolism of the human body in the morning and evening, the physique data will fluctuate in the morning and evening. It is recommended not to simply compare the data measured at different times.

4. What do the data on the body fat scale mean?

Answer: (1) Body fat percentage: Body fat percentage is expressed in the form of fat content as a percentage of body weight, reflecting the degree of obesity in the body.

Basic metabolism: The minimum amount of energy necessary to maintain the basic activities of life. People with high basal metabolism are not prone to obesity.

(2) BMI: refers to the body mass index, which is a standard commonly used in the world to measure the degree of body fat and thinness.

(3) The amount of bone salt: usually the amount of bone salt represents the bone content of the body, the amount of bone salt = fat-free body mass – muscle mass.

(4) Muscle mass: refers to the amount of skeletal muscle, smooth muscle and muscle tissue containing body water. Increasing muscle mass can improve basal metabolism and thus improve the ability to consume fat.

(5) Visceral fat grade: It reflects the accumulation degree of visceral fat, which is generally expressed by grade. A grade of 10 is equivalent to 100cm2 of visceral fat area. High levels of visceral fat can increase the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and high blood lipids.

(6) Body water: the percentage of water in the human body, refers to the blood, lymph, extracellular fluid, intracellular fluid, etc. that contain water in the body.

(7) Physical score: the physical condition score of your test.

(8) Protein: Protein content can reflect the nutritional status of the body, physical development and health.

5. What factors will lead to inaccurate weighing?

Answer: Before and after eating, morning and evening errors, before and after exercise, ground factors, unsteady stance, after bathing or sauna may cause errors in the data.

6. What should I do if the body fat is out of battery?

Answer: Generally speaking, the current body fat scale has two power supply modes: charging and battery. If it is out of power, please replace the battery of the same type or use original accessories for charging.

7. How to calibrate the body fat scale?

Answer: Step on the light scale with one foot, then go down the scale, wait for the scale to return to zero and become 0.0kg, wait for the screen to automatically turn off, and then go up to the scale to measure the weight. When the weight flashes twice, the test is completed. Repeat the above reset to zero 1-3 times, the data will become stable, and the calibration is completed. (Note: Please wait for the 0.0kg to go out by itself or wait for about half a minute. If you use the scale immediately, the scale may have a memory function in a short time, which may cause the calibration to fail.)

8. Body Fat Scale What should I do if it fails?

Answer: If there is a fault, it is recommended to reset it first. If there is still a problem after reset, it should be sent to the warranty point for repair. It is not recommended to disassemble and repair by yourself.
