The BC418MA prints out a complete body composition profile in seconds, displaying separate body composition readings for each arm, leg and trunk.
The Tanita segmental is unique in the BIA field. It has the ability to show fat displacement in the whole body, hence five segments defining body fat percent, fat mass, fat free mass and predicted muscle mass. This extremely valuable information can be used to link a number of health problems and illnesses to body composition.
The Tanita Segmental’s analysis of predictive muscle mass makes it an ideal tool for monitoring the progress of individuals that wish to gain muscle mass, such as individuals who have suffered muscle atrophy due to illness, injury or athletes wanting to gain muscle mass in specific areas for their specialised sport.
Total body measurement includes weight, body fat percentage, body fat mass, fat free mass, estimated muscle mass and basal metabolic rate.
