Ideas in this flowchart

  • InBody scans estimate body composition and are most useful for tracking trends
  • Total Health and Fitness uses InBody scans for this purpose
  • An InBody scan is a quick, non-invasive body composition estimate
  • The scan involves standing on the device and holding its handles
  • The device estimates how body weight breaks down
  • The result is an estimate, not a medical test
  • An InBody scan does not diagnose anything
  • A single reading should not be treated as a precise truth
  • The value of the scan appears in the trend across repeated measurements
  • Repeated scans should be taken under similar conditions

"At Total Health and Fitness we use InBody scans for this. An InBody scan is a quick, non-invasive body composition estimate. You stand on the device, hold the handles, and it estimates how your weight breaks down. It is worth being clear about what that is: an estimate, not a medical test. It does not diagnose anything, and no single reading should be treated as a precise truth. Its value shows up in the trend, the direction the numbers move across repeated scans taken under similar conditions."
