Frequently Asked Questions

It uses the U.S. Navy circumference method, which estimates body fat from height plus neck and waist measurements for men, and height plus neck, waist and hip measurements for women.

No. It is an estimate based on circumference measurements. For best consistency, measure at the same time of day, use the same tape placement, and compare trends rather than single readings.

Body fat percentage is easier to interpret when paired with fat mass and lean mass. These estimates help separate scale weight from body composition.
