Explanation of NEW Tanita Scale Innerscan Features
Tanita Children's Body Fat % Healthy Range |
The first ever monitors to show if children aged 7 - 18 are within healthy ranges for body fat recommended by doctors. |
| Tanita Body Fat % |
Too much or too little body fat can put your health at risk. This Tanita scale highly accurate monitoring technique shows you in seconds if you are in the healthy range based on your age, sex and height. Use Tanita regularly to see the effect of your diet and exercise programme. This will motivate you to follow a healthy lifestyle and keep within the healthy range. |
| Tanita Body Water % |
Helps you understand how your body's composition changes as your hydration levels change. It is important to drink plenty of water a day to stay healthy (minimum of 2 litres / 3 1/2 pints per day). |
| Tanita Bone Weight / Mass |
Indicates the weight of bone mineral in the body. The development of muscle tissue has been shown to encourage stronger, healthier bones. It is important to develop and maintain healthy bones through plenty of exercise along with a calcium rich diet. |
| Tanita Muscle Mass |
Displays the amount of muscle in the body. For every extra pound of muscle gained the body uses approximately 50 extra calories a day. Any user who experiences a change in their muscle mass should monitor and adapt their calorie intake accordingly. Because muscle is denser than fat, monitoring muscle mass gives a more accurate understanding of a person's overall composition and changes in their total body weight. |
| Tanita Basal Metabolic Rate |
Indicates the number of calories your body burns when at rest. Unlike other methods of calculating BMR, Innerscan Fitness takes the amount of muscle in your body into account, giving a more accurate picture of your dietary requirements. Your BMR will tend to decrease as you get older. |
| Tanita Metabolic Age Rating |
Your BMR starts to decrease after the age of 17 and the metabolic age rating indicates what age level your body is currently rated at - you can help prevent this through a regular routine of cardiovascular exercise and increased activity.. The results range guide covers ages between 12 and 50 years old.
|
| Tanita Visceral Fat Rating |
Visceral fat surrounds the internal organs in the stomach/trunk area of your body. High levels of visceral fat increase the risk of high blood pressure, heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Monitoring your results can help you adjust your lifestyle to stay in the low risk range. The Visceral Fat Healthy Range shows if the amount of visceral fat you have is healthy. |
| Tanita Physique Rating |
Describes your overall physique or body shape by examining the balance between the amounts of body fat and muscle in your body. |
