  • stood on my scales this morning and thought I'd try the body fat feature I've ignored for the last 5 years, to discover I apparently have 24.8% body fat, I nearly shit a brick, thankfully I've done a bit of reading this morning and discovered that it just guesses based on height and weight rather than the fancier version that uses electrical impedance, I know I'm a bit fatter than is ideal, but within "normal" bounds on BMI....

    think I might invest in a set of slightly fancier scales that actually measure body fat, anyone have any recommendations?

  • You need to set the scales up with your details otherwise they're way off.

    They all estimate based on parameters you start with. Tanita are tested against other measurement tech (DEXA etc) and the go to brand for accurate scales.
