Product Description
The Tanita BC-731 is the latest addition to the body composition range. The compact glass design ensures easy storage. The large LCD easy-to-read display clearly shows all body composition measurements in seconds. With Athlete mode and a 5 user memory, the BC-731 is perfect for any home.
When developing its body composition equations, Tanita found that a different equation was needed to maintain accuracy in the elite athletic population. People who exercise at high levels over long periods of time exhibit differences in their muscle structure and hydration. Tanita therefore developed a specific 'Athlete' mode for its monitors that are calibrated against a representative sample of athletes. As a general guideline, we recommend Athlete mode for anyone who carries out more than 10 hours of intensive aerobic exercise a week, has been doing so for at least six months AND who has a resting heartbeat of under 60bpm. Athlete mode can also be applied to people who have a lifetime history of fitness - who used to do more than 10 hours a week - but do less now
Body composition monitors are designed for healthier living by giving you an insight into key health indicators that will enable you to monitor the impact of changes to your lifestyle. See the impact of a change of diet on the body to make sure you are dieting the healthy way. Fine-tune your fitness programe by monitoring progress of muscle mass and Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR). Monitor the level of visceral fat, which has been linked as a possible risk factor for developing Type 2 diabetes and/or heart disease. Set a target for your physique and monitor your progress towards it.
Tanita Body Composition Monitors calculate your body composition using Bio-electrical Impedance-Analysis (BIA). Safe, low -level electrical signals are passed through the body via the patented Tanita footpads on the monitor platform. It is easy for the signal to flow through fluids in the muscle and other body tissues but meets resistance as it passes through body fat, as it contains little fluid. This resistance is called impedance. The impedance readings are then entered into medically researched mathematical formulas to calculate your body composition.
