1.3 Why is body analysis sensible? A balanced and controlled diet and exercise are the true “secrets” for great health, moderate body weight, and general wellbeing. For this, a Soehnle body analysis scale will enable you to determine the body values that are relevant for your health.
1.5 The body mass index (BMI) The foundation of this calculation is the body mass index - an index number that can be used to interpret body weight in terms of the risk it poses to your health. The index number is calculated based on the body weight in kilogram, divided by the body height squared (example: BMI = 75 kg = 24,5) 1,75 m x 1,75 m Classification of the body weight based on BMI (Source: World health organization, 2000) BMI (kg/m²) Classification < 18.5 Underweight 18.5 - 24.
1.6 Rules for weighing The weight of an adult can change by approx. 2-3 kg during one day. For a reliable weight control it is therefore important to maintain constant weighing conditions. That’s why it’s best to weigh oneself • sober • always at the same time: the time between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. is best for body analysis. • undressed nsure the sturdy and secure placement of the platform. Textile or soft floor surfaces can influence the E measurement results rather strongly.
Other circumstances influencing a body analysis Besides fundamental fluctuations in daily measurement values, fluctuations may also arise due to changes in the water content due to the consumption of foods and liquids, menstruation, illness, exercise, and bathing.
