How can you learn from the report Slovensko

(1) Body Composition Analysis

Reliable, non-invasive bioelectrical impedance analyses make it easier to monitor body composition on a regular basis. The calculated estimated weights of the body's constituent elements can be compared with standard results for specific conditions.

(2) Muscle-Fat Analysis

Weight measurements are important, but they are incomplete without further analysing the client's muscle and fat content. Understanding the ratio of skeletal muscle to body fat can help trainers develop muscle and fat control recommendations.

(3) Obesity Analysis

Different body fat indicators can provide valuable information needed for more useful health assessments. While percentage body fat is a universal indicator, waist-to-hip ratio and visceral fat are key cut-offs for the risk of obesity-related diseases that may not be immediately apparent from the outside.

(4) Full body & Segmental Analysis

Measure muscle and fat more accurately by segmenting the torso, upper body and lower body. Identify imbalances, determine if muscle segmentation is within normal ranges, and track changes to better observe the effectiveness of rehabilitation or training.

(5) Bioelectrical Vector Impedance Analysis (BIVA)

Bioelectrical Vector Impedance Analysis (BIVA) uses direct measurements of reactance and resistance to enable reliable comparisons and assessments of cellular hydration and nutritional status, even in people with abnormal hydration.

(6) Phase Angle

Phase angle decreases with disease and aging, making it an important indicator of health and a necessity for professional body composition assessment. The phase angle is compared with the respective gender and age to contextualise the results.

(7) Muscle Quality

Track changes in mass, not just quantity! In the elderly population, muscle strength declines much faster than muscle mass. By assessing muscle effectiveness through cellular assessment of grip health, professionals now have a more useful indicator that can provide early warning of fall risk.

(8) Body Fat Percentange

compares body fat percentage to peer populations and relates results to age, gender, and races. Results that are ‘normal’ for a 20-year-old do not necessarily apply to an 80-year-old, this module helps subjects understand the comparative results better.

(9) Edema Index

dentify abnormalities in intracellular/extracellular fluid ratios and use the oedema index as an indicator and early warning signal for diseases affecting fluid balance, including cardiac and functional impairment.
