Inbody Body Composition Scan

How are you tracking your fitness progress? If you’re like most people, you step on your bathroom scale when you want to assess your health. But doesn’t it feel like none of your plans to get healthier work out the way you expected them to? That’s because your bathroom scale is misleading. It’s time to ditch the scale. Why? Because weight loss is not the same as fat loss. As we age, we naturally lose some of our heavy, dense muscle mass, and a lower number on the scale doesn’t always mean we’re in peak condition. The key to physical fitness is losing excess body fat, not overall body weight. Instead of tracking how heavy you are, use body composition analysis to track how healthy you are.

Your weight is made up of muscle, fat, bone, and water, and the proportions of these different elements are known as your body composition. When you take a body composition test at LIIV Medical & Aesthetics it shows you how many pounds of muscle, fat, bone, and water you actually have. InBody’s unique technology performs segmental analysis, assessing each limb and your trunk to reveal its muscle mass, body fat, body water balance, and cellular health. This gives you insight into your current health status, potential areas of inflammation, your risk of chronic disease, and which exercise and nutrition plans will be most effective for you. Armed with this data, you can make the little adjustments that lead to major long-term improvements. By monitoring your result sheets, over time, you’ll be able to note any changes in skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, segmental body water, visceral fat area, cellular health, hydration levels, and more. Tests can be performed every two to four weeks to continuously monitor your progress toward your health goals.
