As awareness of the health risks associated with being
overweight continues to grow, body fat weight scales are in high
demand. For people concerned about their weight and overall
health, body fat weight scales are popular items in today's
market, and for good reason. Body fat weight scales will help
calculate and track your body composition, BMI (Body Mass
Index), weight, and body fat percentage. We specifically carry
state-of-the-
can rely on their durability and accuracy.
If you're committed to improving your health through exercise
and adhering to a disciplined diet, then body fat weight scales
are for you. And it goes without saying that if you're a
nutritionist, dietitian, trainer, or even a physical therapist,
body fat weight scales will be critical additions to your
practice. Put simply, there's just nothing at all worth the risk
of being overweight. Beyond the health risks associated with
obesity, being overweight can increase your chances of acquiring
the following:
Diabetes
High Cholesterol
Hypertension
Heart Disease
Body fat weight scales will help keep you on track as you
pursue a healthier life. Along with measuring weight and body
fat, body fat weight scales will give you accurate results when
measuring your Body Mass Index. According to experts, BMI is the
most accurate way to determine the effect of weight on one's
health. BMI is a formula that gives you a numerical estimation
of your health based on height and weight:
Recommended BMI Thresholds
Males
• Underweight = less than 20
• Ideal = greater than or equal to 20 but less than 25
• Overweight = greater than or equal to 25 but less than 30
• Obese = greater than or equal to 30
Females
• Underweight = less than 18
• Ideal = greater than or equal to 18 but less than 25
• Overweight = greater than or equal to 25 but less than 30
• Obese = greater than or equal to 30
As your BMI goes up, so does your risk of developing
weight-related diseases, such as those previously listed.
Nonetheless, some fat is essential. Essential fats are
necessary for normal physiological and biological functioning.
Such fats, however, are stored in bone marrow, and around
internal organs such as the kidneys, liver, muscles, and lipid
rich tissues of the central nervous system. It is excess fat
that is the concern here.
Excess fat is produced when the intake of calories in the form
of food and drink is more than the energy expended. When the
body is given more calories than necessary for standard
maintenance and physical activity, this excess energy is stored
in the form of body fat. The only way to lose this excess fat is
to burn more energy than calories consumed, typically through an
exercise and diet regimen. The use of a body fat weight scale
will not only help you track your BMI, but track your fat
percentage as well.
The American Council on Exercise provides the following ranges
for body-fat percentage:
............
Essential Fat.........
Athletes....
Fitness.....
Obese.......
A person's body-fat percentage and BMI can be measured via body
fat weight scales, not through the use of ordinary medical
scales.
