5. SMM (Skeletal Muscle Mass) Cardiac muscle, smooth muscle, and skeletal muscle are the three major muscle types found in the body. Skeletal muscle mass correlates with athletic performance, as it is under voluntary control and used to power movement. In addition, it can be developed actively through proper nutrition and training, thus making this value an important indicator for evaluation of fitness progression.

8. Body Age The app will compare your results with database to calculate your body age. 9. BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) Basal Metabolic Rate is the minimum required energy to sustain the body's vital functions while at rest. These functions include breathing, blood circulation, regulation of body temperature, cell growth, brain function, and nerve function.
Ⅶ. Measurement Guidelines About Bioelectrical Impedance Measurement U310/B310 uses Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to calculate body composition. At its core, BIA operates by treating the human body as an electrical conductor within an alternating current circuit, from which the alternating current resistance and impedance is measured.

3. Do not shower or bathe directly before measurement. Perspiration can result in a temporary change in body composition measurements, as the accuracy of BIA depends largely upon interpretation of measured impedance values, which are affected greatly by hydration levels. 4.
