9. Results in relation to time
Note:
Remember that only long-term trends are important. Short-term fluctuations in weight over a few days are
usually the result of fluid change, due to fluid intake or loss.
The interpretation of the results will depend on changes in your overall weight and body fat, body water and
muscle percentages, as well as on the period during which these changes take place. Sudden changes within
days must be distinguished from medium term changes (over weeks) and long term changes (months).
A basic rule is that short term changes in weight almost exclusively represent changes in water content,
whereas medium and long term changes may also involve the fat and muscle percentages.
• I
f your weight reduces over the short term, but your body fat percentage increases or remains the same,
you have merely lost water – e.g. after a training session, sauna session or a diet restricted only to rapid
weight loss.
• I
f your weight increases over the medium term and the body fat percentage falls or stays the same, then
you could have built up valuable muscle mass.
• I
f your weight and body fat percentage fall simultaneously, then your diet is working – you are losing fat
mass.
I
deally you should support your diet with physical activity, fitness or power training. This way you can
increase your muscle percentage over the medium term.
• B
ody fat, body water or muscle percentages should not be added (certain elements of muscle tissue also
contain body water).

than 75 %).
Repeat the measurement barefoot.
If necessary, remove the calluses from
the soles of your feet.
“Err” The muscle percentage is outside the measur-
able range (age and gender related).
Repeat the measurement barefoot.
If necessary, remove the calluses from
the soles of your feet.
“Lo” Low Power. Change the battery.
