They are ISO certified and measure in both pounds and kilograms. Our line of digital miniscales brings quality, reliability, and selection to numerous professionals. Search for:. Taylor Lithium Body Fat Scale Manual Taylor USA's digital bathroom scales utilize strain gauge technology to provide accurate weight readings, but several factors can affect a scale's accuracy and reliability. Like many body fat scales, the Taylor tempered glass scale features a pound capacity, but delivers measurements in 0.
Taylor is one of the leading manufacturers of scales and other precision products. You can check this information in your scale's user manual. Once the scale is successfully set to zero, test the scale's accuracy with an object of a known weight. Something like a pound free weight is ideal and should let you know immediately whether the scale is measuring and displaying weight accurately. Measures 6 Body Composition Elements: Provides weight readings plus estimates for body fat, body water and muscle mass in both normal and athlete modes athlete mode is best for users that exercise up to 3x per week for at least 2 hours each time plus Cal Max and BMI for up to 10 unique user profiles.

TheTaylor Body Fat Analyzer and Scale uses BIA Bio Impedance Analysis technology which passes a tiny electrical impulse through the body to determine fat from lean tissue, the electrical impulse cannot be felt and is perfectly safe.

BMI, Basal Metabolic Rate and muscle tnass,grving you a more accurate reading of your overall health and fitness. This scale will also display weight, body fat and total body water for children and young adults aged years.
Muscle mass. This scale stores the personal data of up to 8 uscrs. As well as being an analyzer scale. The human body is made up of. This is vital for a healthy, functioning body - it cushions joints and protects vital organs.
However, too much body fat or indeed too little body fat tan be damaging to your health. It is difficult to gauge how much body fat we have in our bodies simply by looking at ourselves in she mirror. This is why it is important to measure and monitor your body fat percentage. Body fat percentage gives you a better measure of fitness than weight alone -- the composition of your weighs loss could mean you are losing muscle mass rather than fat - you could still have a high percentage of fat even when a scale indicates 'normal weight'.
It represents over half of your total weight and almost two thirds of your lean body mass predornnrantly muscle. Water performs a number of important roles in the body: Alf the tells in the body, whether in the skin. Water also plays a vital part in regulating the bodys temperature balance, particularly through perspiration.
The combination of your weight and far measurement could appear to be 'normal' but your body hydration levet could be insufficient for healthy living. Your BMR is influenced by a number of factors. If you don't do anything to replace that loss you're losing muscle and increasing fat. It is also important to know your muscle mass ' during weight reduction. At rest, the body burns approximately 50 additional calories for each pound of muscle gained. Seine advantages of gaining muscle mass include:.
Reversing the decline in strength. Your Taylor Scale eakulases your Bill value Below is a useful chart to show the correlation between height. Overweight and Obese. Your weight in kilos. Fitness program recominerrded. Fig 2 For those using Athlete Mode: note that athletes may have a lower body fat range and a higher body water range than shown above, depending opt their type of sport or activity.
Body water measurement results are influenced by the proportion of body fat and muscle. If thc proportion of body fat is high. It is important to remember that measurements such as body weight.
As short term fluctuations are normal. This product is for domestic use only. Pregnant women should only use t e weight function. Professional medical guidance should always be sought before embarking on diet and exercise programs. If in doubt, consult your doctor. Your Bill category can be identified using the table below.
BMI C. How exactly is my body fat and water being measured? A minute current is sent through your body. This current flows easily through the lean muscular tissue, which has a high fluid content. Therefore, by measuring your body's impedance i. From this, the quantity of fat and water can then be estimated. What is the value of the current passing through me when the measurement is taken? Is it safe? The current is less than ImA. You will not be able to feel it. Please note however, that this device should not be used by anyone with an internal electronic medical device, such as a pacemaker.
If I measure my body fat and water at different times during the day, it can vary quite considerably. Which value is correct? Your body fat percentage reading varies with body water content, and the latter changes throughout the course of the day.
There is no right or wrong time of the day to take a reading. But while it might look very scientific and official, much of this information is completely useless.

In fact, you could lose fat and gain muscle over a period of several months, but body fat scales might say that your body fat percentage has gone up.
The first and perhaps most obvious problem with body fat scales is that they miss out large segments of your body. Stand on a set of foot-to-foot body fat scales, for example, and the current will simply go up one leg and down the other [4]. Changes in hydration status will also have a big impact on the results. In fact, bioelectrical impedance analysis seems to interpret a change in body water as a change in fat mass [5].
Levels of total body water can also be affected by the type of training you do. In a group of men using strength training to lose weight, changes in body fat measured by underwater weighing and bioelectrical impedance analysis agreed reasonably well [1]. But in those who lost weight using cardiovascular exercise, bioelectrical impedance analysis underestimated fat loss and overestimated the loss of fat-free mass.
This discrepancy appears to have been caused by a change in total body water resulting from an increase in plasma volume, which is one of the adaptations to cardiovascular training. The problem with this idea is that a change in weight causes a shift in the density of various tissues. Different types of training also have different effects on the density and composition of fat-free mass [3].
But body fat scales wrongly assumes that the density of various tissues is the same from person to person, and remains constant over time as you lose weight. When researchers have put body fat scales to the test, the results have been less than impressive. In one study, researchers from Maastricht University looked at changes in body composition in a group of male bodybuilders.
