InBody Composition Testing
InBody 270 Body Composition Analysis
Full Body Composition Test
What is an Inbody assessment?
An Inbody assessment gives you an accurate analysis of what your body is made up of. The InBody Scale uses cutting edge technology to help professionals and everyday people fine-tune their health and wellness and workout regimens.
It will precisely monitor your physical progressions, body shape, body composition & more. Accurately track your progress & monitor changes in your muscle mass & body fat.
Why is this important?
Stepping on a traditional bathroom scale tells you absolutely nothing about your health. The number on a traditional scale only tells you your total bodyweight. That scale does not break your weight down into what it’s made up of – muscle mass + water + body fat + dry mass (protein and minerals) which all play a part in assessing your overall physical health.

• Total Body Weight
