Body fat percentage
Body fat values are shown in the display and analysed with the bar chart. The subsequent body fat per-
centages serve as a guideline (for further information ask your doctor).

Values will often be lower for fitness enthusiasts. Depending on the sporting activities performed, the
training intensity and the physical constitution, the results may still be below the stated standard values.
Please note, however, that there may be a risk to health in the case of extremely low values.
Visceral fat (organ fat/abdominal fat)
Visceral fat denotes fat that surrounds the internal organs within the abdominal cavity. Visceral fat is sus-
pected of contributing to conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes.
Visceral fat is shown in the display as a value between 1 and 59.
Visceral fat percentage value Rating
1-12
Your visceral fat percentage is in the normal range.
13-59 Your visceral fat percentage is too high.
Body water content
The body water content in % is normally within the following ranges:
Male Female
Age Poor Good Very good Age Poor Good Very good
10–100 <50 % 50 – 65 % >65 % 10–100 <45 % 45 – 60 % >60 %
Body fat contains relatively little water, therefore body water content may be below the standard values in
persons with a high body fat percentage. On the other hand, endurance athletes may exceed the standard
values due to having low levels of fat and a high muscle percentage.
The body water calculation performed using this scale is not suitable for drawing medical conclusions,
for example in the case of age-related water retention. Consult your doctor where necessary. A high body
water content is generally desirable.
Muscle percentage
The muscle percentage measurement measures the skeletal muscle mass. No organ muscles are taken
into account. The muscle percentage is normally within the following ranges:
