muscle contraction. Your skeletal muscles function almost continuously to maintain your
posture, making one tiny adjustment after another to keep your body upright. Skeletal
muscle is also important for holding your bones in the correct position and prevents your
joints from dislocating. Some skeletal muscles in your face are directly attached to your
skin. The slightest contraction of one of these muscles changes your facial expression.
Skeletal muscle generates heat as a by-product of muscle activity. This heat is vital for
maintaining your normal body temperature.
Skeletal muscle represents approximately 30% of body weight of a healthy 58
kg woman or 40% of a 70 kg man. (International Commission on Radiological
Protection, 1975)
8. What is Bone Mass?
Our Body Fat Scale estimates the weight of non-living bone mineral content. This
is important for monitoring and maintaining healthy bones through exercise and
calcium-rich diet.
An adult skeleton is made up of 206 bones, which come in several different shapes and

Your bones contain blood vessels, nerve cells and living bone cells known as osteocytes.
These are held together by a framework of hard, non-living material containing calcium
and phosphorous. A thin membrane called the periosteum covers the surface of your
bones.

For Adults: The average bone mineral content of 15-29 year old female is approximately
2.7 kg, that for 15-29 year old male is approximately between 2.7 and 3.5 kg. (Rico et al.

10. What is Fat-free Mass?
Our Body Fat Scale estimates the weight of fat-free mass in your body.
Fat-free mass is comprised of the nonfat components of the human body. Skeletal
muscle, bone and water are all examples of fat-free mass. Fat-free mass can refer to any
body tissue that does not contain fat.
