Proportion of muscle
Whilst the proportion of muscle in % is shown in the display,
one of the 9 segments appears in the bar below it.
The muscle mass is the engine of our bodies. Most of our
energy conversion takes place in our muscles. The muscles take
care of the maintenance of body temperature and they are the
basis of our bodily performance. An exercised, muscular body
is seen as aesthetically pleasing.
A check of the muscle mass is particularly important for peo-
ple with weight and fat problems. Since the body needs
muscles to reduce excess energy reserves or folds of fat, long-
term weight reduction can only be achieved in parallel with
reduction of muscle mass.
Proportion of water in the body
Whilst the proportion of water in the body in % is shown in
the display, one of the 9 segments appears in the bar below it.
The figure shown in this analysis reflects the "total body
water” (TBW). The body of an adult is composed of about
60% water. Here there is of course a certain range, with older
people showing a lower proportion of water than younger
people and men showing a higher proportion than women.
The distinction between men and women is a result of the
higher mass of body fat in women. Since the majority of the
body’s water is to be found in the fat-free mass (73% of the
FFM is water) and since the water content in the fat is very
low by its nature (about10% of the
fatty tissue is water), the proportion of body fat automatically
decreases with an increasing proportion of water in the body.

3- 4 %

7+ 4 % high proportion of water
8+ 6 %

Example:
Calculated actual proportion of water in the body
= 56.7 % of total weight
This value is about 6 % below the calculated individual
standard value of 62.7 %.

individual standard value

6+ 2 %
7+ 4 % high proportion of muscle
8+ 6 %
9 > + 6 %
Example:
Actual proportion of muscle calculated
= 41.5 % of total body weight
This value is also the calculated standard value.
