The benefits of body composition mode

Your new scale can do more than just show your weight; it can help you understand what’s really happening inside your body. By tracking your body composition, you can see how much of your body is made up of fat-free mass (muscle, bone, and water) and how much is body fat. These insights give you a much clearer picture of your progress and overall health.

 

Here’s why body composition tracking is so helpful:

  • See real progress. Your weight can change from water or food, but body composition shows what’s truly improving, like losing fat or gaining healthy muscle.

  • Build strength, not just lose pounds. Watching your fat-free mass helps you make sure you’re keeping (or building) muscle while you get healthier.

  • Boost your metabolism. Muscle burns more calories than fat, even while you rest. Tracking it helps you understand how your body uses energy.

  • Stay motivated. Seeing your body fat percentage drop and your muscle increase can keep you inspired to keep up your healthy habits.

 

Body composition tracking helps you focus on how your body is changing, not just what the scale says. It’s a smart, empowering way to celebrate progress and stay on track toward a stronger, healthier you.
