WHETHER YOU ARE TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT, CUT BODY FAT, GAIN MUSCLE, OR JUST BE HEALTHIER – REGULAR BODY COMPOSITION TESTING WILL ACCELERATE YOUR RESULTS!
Whether weight loss, fat loss or muscle gain is your goal, body composition testing via our TGA approved Bio Impedance Scan will help you get superior results by understanding what is actually happening to your body.
In just a few minutes a Bio Impedance scan will give you a detailed breakdown of your body composition:
- Fat Mass
- Muscle Mass
- Hydration Levels
- Metabolic Rate
Body Composition Testing Creates A Snap Shot of Where You Are & Sets a Clear Path For progress!
Reference Data (Age, Sex, Height, Weight)
-
- The BIA device uses population databases based on thousands of scans to set “healthy ranges.”
- For example, a 30-year-old woman will have different ideal body fat and muscle ranges compared to a 60-year-old man.
Body Composition Norms
- BIA compares your results to scientific norms for:
- Body fat % (healthy vs. high risk ranges).
- Muscle mass distribution.
- Hydration levels.
These norms are based on large studies of healthy individuals in each category.
Metabolic Rate & Lean Mass
- Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) is calculated from your lean mass.
This tells us how many calories your body burns at rest, giving a personalised benchmark for energy needs.
Tracking Your Own Baseline
Just as important: your first scan becomes your personal benchmark.
Every follow-up scan compares you against yourself — so you can see if you’re losing fat, maintaining muscle, and improving hydration over time.
Other Great reasons for testing Body Composition.
