Inbody 570
The InBody 570 is a device that uses Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) to measure your body composition. BIA was first used in the 1960’s, and now through technological advancements achieved by InBody, is recognized worldwide as one of the most accurate and reproducible body composition analysis techniques.
BIA is a method of measuring impedance by applying alternating low-level electrical currents to a user through electrodes placed on their hands and feet. The impedance (resistance) that the current encounters as it travels through the body is measured. Because different cells contain different levels of water (and therefore yield different impedance), the InBody is able to accurately differentiate between the 4 main components of the human body - minerals, protein, fat, water.

The detailed report provided through an InBody scan is an invaluable tool for monitoring over 40 parameters, including total skeletal muscle mass, total body fat and visceral fat level.By regularly monitoring these parameters through monthly or bi-monthly scans, you are able to understand how your diet and training regime are influencing your body composition.
BIA is a non-invasive method and most users experience no sensation at all. It is important to note that body composition results will be affected in the case of pregnancy, breast augmentation, irremovable piercings, metal plates/pins/screws, or where a pacemaker, defibrillator or nerve stimulator are present. It is not advised to scan if you are pregnant or have a pacemaker.
