FITNESS TESTING INBODY ASSESSMENT
Take part in the latest cutting edge in body
composition assessment! Our InBody Assessment Equipment goes beyond weight to measure how much lean mass you have in each body segment. Additionally, it measures total body water and fluid distribution. Body composition (percent fat and lean) reflects the results of both physical activity and nutritional practices. Body weight alone can be very misleading. The scale cannot tell the difference between a pound of fat and a pound of muscle. Over time, people tend to gain fat and lose muscle without an obvious change in their weight. Even though we need a certain amount of fat in our bodies to ensure good health, excess body fat has been found to increase the risk of diseases such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease. On the other hand, too little body fat can also pose a number of health risks, especially for women. Only by accurately measuring body composition do you learn the amount of fat and lean tissue that makes up your weight, enabling sensible decisions regarding nutrition and exercise programs. It’s the best way to get the “whole picture” of what’s really going on in your body. Individual Analysis
