Note that a trend is shown only for the body weight and the body fat, body water and
muscle percentages and can be shown only when you have stored at least 5 body fat
percentages etc.
Interpretation
The weight values and the body fat,
body water and muscle percentages
are interpreted with a bar in the evaluation graphic. When the values are low, the bar is shown to
the left (-). When the bar is in the middle area, the values are normal. While in the right-hand area
(+) the values are relatively high.
Weight:
Your weight is compared with the BMI (Body Mass Index). It is calculated using the following for-
mula: BMI = Weight in kg / (height in m)² .
Underweight
Normal weight
<20
20-25
Note that with very muscular physiques (body builders), the BMI interpretation will show over-
weight. The reason for this is that no account is taken of well above average muscle mass in the
BMI formula.

tion).

A lower value is often found in athletes. Depending on the type of sports, training intensity and
physical constitution, values may result which are below the recommended values stated.
It should, however, be noted that there could be a danger to health in the case of extremely low
values.
