What Is Body Composition Testing...and Why Is It Important?

Picture
​
​Body Composition Testing is a method of breaking the body down into its main components of fat, protein, minerals and water...this is called your Body Composition!  Your body composition is a more accurate picture of what your body is made of and gives you a glimpse into your overall health, compared to traditional methods like standing on the bathroom scale or your doctor calculating your BMI (Body Mass Index).
 
It's possible to be at healthy weight or BMI, but still have too much body fat and not enough healthy lean muscle.  Regardless of your weight, too much body fat increases your risk of things like heart disease, diabetes, cancer and dementia.  Body Composition Testing can help identify any changes that are needed in your body composition to improve your overall health, even if you're at healthy weight.   

Most people who are overweight and want to get healthy will focus on losing some weight, but often end up losing muscle mass along with some body fat.  Losing too much lean muscle is often what sabotages your weight loss efforts and makes you more likely to gain all the weight back...and then some.

What most people are really trying to do is change their body composition by losing body fat and maintaining or even gaining lean muscle.  This is what gives you that healthy fit look!  Healthy lean muscle mass is also the key to maintaining an active lifestyle and your  independence as you age. 


Body Composition Testing regularly throughout your weight loss journey helps you stay motivated and tracks your progress to ensure you are not just losing weight, but that you are actually improving your body composition, your  health and your chances of long-term weight loss success.  ​

​Body Composition Testing will change the way you see your weight and is a fundamental component of a successful weight loss program...that works!

After stepping on the InBody, the body composition analyzer will complete your scan in less than 30 seconds and your test results  will be available immediately. 

Your personalized test results will give you a more complete understanding of your health by seeing how much muscle, fat and water you have instead of relying on a number on a scale.

At a glance you will be able to see your body fat percentage and the balance of of lean muscle between your right and left sides.  Other important information, including lean body mass and basal metabolic rate, can also the guesswork out of creating a nutrition and fitness program to help you reach your health goals faster. 


Testing at least once a month (or quarterly if you're closer to your goal) is a great way to track your progress over time.  Seeing changes in your body fat, muscle mass and overall body fat percentage, lets you know if you're on the right track or if some adjustments are needed to your nutrition or fitness program.

Prepare For Your Body Composition Test 
Picture
Your body constantly changes and adapts throughout the day, which can influence your test results. 

Following the short steps below will help you prepare for your Body Composition Test and ensure you get the most accurate test results every time. 


  • Test in the morning if possible for the most consistency
  • Drink 16 oz. of water 45-60 minutes before testing
  • Don't eat or exercise at least 2-3 hours before testing
  • Maintain normal fluid intake the day before
  • Avoid alcohol and caffeine 12-24 hours before testing

Regardless of what you do (or don't do), being consistent with your individual pre-testing protocol will give you the most accurate comparison from one test to the next.
