lower value is often found in athletes. Depending on the type of sports, training intensity and physical con-
stitution, 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.
Body water:
The body water percentage is normally within the following ranges:
Man
red
Age
poor
10–100
<50%
Body fat contains relatively little water. Therefore persons with a high body fat percentage have body wa-
ter percentages below the recommended values. With endurance athletes, however, the recommended
values could be exceeded due to low fat percentages and high muscle percentage.
Body water measurement with this scale is not suitable for drawing medical conclusions, for example con-
cerning age-related water retention. If necessary ask your physician.
Basically, a high body water percentage should be the aim.
Muscle percentage:
The muscle percentage is normally within the following ranges:
Man

Bone mass:
Like the rest of our body, our bones are subject to the natural development, degeneration and ageing pro-
cesses. Bone mass increases rapidly in childhood and reaches its maximum between 30 and 40 years of
age. Bone mass reduces slightly with increasing age. You can reduce this degeneration somewhat with
healthy nutrition (particularly calcium and vitamin D) and regular exercise. With appropriate muscle buil-
ding, you can also strengthen your bone structure.
Note that this scale will not show you the calcium content of your bones, but will measure the weight of all
bone constituents (organic substances, inorganic substances and water).
Attention: Please do not confuse bone mass with bone density. Bone density can be determined only by
means of a medical examination (e.g. computer tomography, ultrasound). It is therefore not possible to
draw conclusions concerning changes to the bones and bone hardness (e.g. osteoporosis) using this scale.
Little influence can be exerted on bone mass, but it will vary slightly within the influencing factors (weight,
height, age, gender).
