Serious Science, Serious Results
There are tons of fly-by-night weight-loss fads out there. The BodyMedia FIT system is not one of them. Scientific studies over the last 10 years have proven that BodyMedia technology is accurate and that it delivers the results you're looking for. Weight loss attempts fail not because you lack willpower, but because you lack the right information. To lose weight effectively, you should know calories in, calories out, and sleep quality.

BodyMedia FIT
BodyMedia FIT

The BodyMedia FIT weight management system captures 5,000+ readings every minute to capture your individual metabolic profile.
One Size Doesn't Fit All
You burn calories differently than anyone else, which is why cookie-cutter weight loss programs may not be working for you. The BodyMedia FIT weight management system captures 5,000+ readings every minute to capture your individual metabolic profile. This personalized information helps you pinpoint what actions you need to take to reach your weight-loss goals.

Weight loss boils down to three key things:

  • Calories Burned - Everything you do during the day and night -- from pumping iron to pumping gas -- burns calories. And the way you burn calories may be different from the next guy.

  • Calories Consumed - Knowing what you eat is an important part of losing weight. Too many carbs? Not enough fiber? BodyMedia FIT will give you a detailed nutritional breakdown.

  • Quantity and Quality of Sleep - Scientists understand and study the role of sleep in weight loss. Good sleep can help suppress your appetite and maintain your energy, which is important to weight loss.

Ozeri Touch 440 lb Digital Bathroom Scale -- Measures Weight, Body Fat, Hydration, Muscle and Bone Mass with Auto Recognition Technology for 8 Personal Profiles Review



Ozeri Touch 440 lb Digital Bathroom Scale -- Measures Weight, Body Fat, Hydration, Muscle and Bone Mass with Auto Recognition Technology for 8 Personal Profiles Feature

  • New InstaOn Technology automatically powers on upon contact to display weight measurements and automatically powers off to converse battery power. No tapping needed to activate the scale.
  • Uses advanced algorithms to calculate Body Fat, Hydration Levels, Muscle Mass and Bone Index measurements within seconds of stepping onto the scale.
  • Features 3 Touch Sensitive Buttons for easy operation and 4 icons that automatically illuminate for Body Fat, Hydration, Muscle and Bone measurements.
  • Utilizes 4 high precision G sensors to weigh up to 400 pounds (180 kilograms) in 0.2lb or 0.1kg increments.
  • Elegant reflective black surface is made of high quality impact-resistant tempered glass, which is 4 times stronger than normal glass.
With the ability to provide instant weight measurements and calculate body fat, hydration, muscle mass and bone measurements, the Ozeri Touch 440 lb Digital Bathroom Scale is one of the most advanced bathroom scales. With embedded StepOn technology, it automatically powers on upon contact. No more tapping needed to activate the scale. It features 3 Touch Sensitive Buttons for easy operation, and 4 icons that automatically illuminate on the screen for Body Fat, Hydration, Muscle and Bone measurements. The Ozeri Touch includes built-in memory for up to 8 user profiles. Each profile stores weight, gender, height, and age data so that your family members can each track their progress. The Ozeri Touch Digital Bathroom Scale combines advanced algorithms with bioelectrical impedance analysis (BI), incorporating a person's age, height, gender and weight to accurately calculate advanced measurements. BI is a well established and respected method used to estimate body fat and hydration. Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues with a relative high water content which conducts electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that on the other hand displays much less electric conductivity. With BMI, the Ozeri Scale sends a weak and harmless electrical current through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. This weak electrical current is imperceptible to the user, and returns back data that is used to instantly calculate the advanced measurements. The Ozeri Touch displays all results on its new easy to read 3-1/2-inch LCD screen in a new bright blue font. It utilizes 4 latest generation G sensors to capture weights up to 400lbs with industry leading accuracy. The scale turns off automatically to conserve battery power, and runs on 2 included Lithium batteries for longer performance than AA and AAA batteries. The scale is made of impact resistant tempered glass which is 4 times stronger than normal glass, and boasts a reflective white surface and elegant design.

    Together we'll accomplish more - Optimal Training Zones

    By exercising within your target-training zone, you'll achieve more in less time. Each zone offers different benefits. The most popular zone range is 50% to 80% of your maximum heart. This is where you achieve cardio benefits, burn fat, and become fitter. Your Omron Heart Rate Monitor is programmable so you can maintain your workout within your chosen zone. (See the chart for percentages)

    + Health Maintenance (65%-78%) – Low-intensity level training. Good if you're a beginner and strengthening your cardiovascular system.

    + Aerobic Exercise (65%-85%) – Increases strength and endurance. Burns calories faster and can be sustained during longer workouts.

    + Anaerobic Exercise (78%-90%) – Improves speed and power. This zone builds muscle faster, but cannot be maintained for long workouts.

    + Red Line (90-100%) – Maximum capacity.

    Knowing your heart rate is important because if you are working out too hard, your activity can become counter productive and strain muscles. To achieve an effective workout, no matter what the aerobic activity, you must maintain your heart rate at a proper level for a minimum of 20 minutes. The proper level is generally 65% -85% of your maximum heart rate.
