Body fat scales ( smart scale)

[A/CMAN]

How many of you use a smart scale? It sure gives a lot of info for a scale, even a good dose of reality!

Most of the time I go to a local supplement shop and do an inbody scan but I've been thinking about getting one how do you like it how accurate did it seem

I got one, but I don’t trust it at all. Last time I used it it labeled me as fat muscular, we almost threw hands

The ones you get at store use electric pulse to measure resistance. If you are dehydrated or just worked out the resistance will be way off because lower water content. Only way to use them is mid morning after you've rehydrated for the day but before you sweat. That's why I got one but don't use anything but weight. They can be good tool if you make sure you use same parameters every time, timing, hydration, activity

Didn’t know that, my girl had it for a while. I just use to weigh myself, upon waking some times. Don’t use the bmi feature that’s linked to a phone app.

Many years ago when such things came out i would use one and you could pick your gender. I was at my leanest when i picked female and would come back as 40%+ BF even though you could see my abs. Hopefully they are better now.
