INFORMATION ON BODY COMPOSITION
Recommended Measurement Times
Understanding the normal changes in your body fat percentage can help you maintain your
fitness and health and/or help you reduce your body fat. Being aware of the times when the
body fat percentages shift within your own daily schedule will assist you in obtaining an
accurate trending of your body fat. It is recommended to use the Fat Loss Monitor in
the same environment and daily circumstances for each measurement. (See chart)
DO NOT take a measurement:
Before lunch and about 2 hours or
more after breakfast
In the afternoon about 2 hours or
more after lunch and before taking
bath or
dinner
Before going to bed and about 2
hours or more after dinner
Avoid taking a measurement immediately after these situations, as the measured body fat
percentage may differ significantly from the actual one because the water content in the
body is changing:
o
After drinking a large amount of water or after a meal (l to 2 hours)
o
After drinking alcohol
·
o
Immediately after exercise
o
Immediately after a shower, bath or sauna
