Why is the Athlete Mode necessary in a Body Fat Scale?
- It has been found that body fat estimation using BIA could overestimate
the percentage body fat of adult elite athletes. The physiological variation
of athletes in bone density and level of hydration are two of the reasons
said to account for the difference.

Body Composition Inaccurate?
Q: Why are my body composition numbers different than the ones I see at
my gym, doctor, etc.?
A: Body composition analysis is an inexact science, regardless of the
manufacturer or method of measurement. Because your scale combines
the measurements it takes with variables stored in your user profile
according to our algorithm, the numbers you see may vary from those you
see using other measurement methods—which is completely normal.
When you’re measuring body composition, it’s more important to pay
attention to overall trends than day-to-day numbers. (Tracking in the
Renpho app helps with that.)
