Q&A - Fitness Monitors
What is the Bioelectrical Impedance Method?
Bioelectrical Impedance (BI) is considered one of the most accurate and accessible methods of screening body fat. Muscles, blood vessels and bones are body tissues having a high water content that conduct electricity easily. Body fat is tissue that has little electric conductivity. The monitor sends an extremely weak electrical current through your body to determine the amount of fat tissue. The weak electrical current is not felt while operating the Body Fat Analyzer. The monitor is calculated by a formula that includes five factors; electric resistance, height, weight, age and gender.
What is visceral fat?
Visceral fat is located around the organs. Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to increased level of fat in the bloodstream, which can lead to common conditions such as high cholesterol, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Sedentary life style causes excess visceral fat, and exercise can reduce it quicker than subcutaneous fat (fat located under skin).
What is resting metabolism?
Resting metabolism is the energy to maintain vital functions and it counts 60 to 70% of total energy consumption. Knowing your resting metabolism can help your dietplan. If you can increase daily activity while keeping food intake at resting metabolism level, you can lose weight.
What is skeletal muscle?
Skeletal muscle is muscle attached to the bones that is used to move the body. If you do weight loss without exercise, you may lose skeletal muscle. Skeletal muscle is important to maintain your resting metabolism as well as your functionality. Monitoring skeletal muscle during weight loss is key to avoid weight rebound in the future.





Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great basic heart rate monitor
The Omron HR-100C is simple to use and easy to switch between actual time and the heart rate function. If you don't want to invest too much this is a great starter monitor.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - easy to use and accurate
This heart rate monitor is just as it is supposed to be: easy to use and very accurate.
I had lots of problems with other heart rate monitors. The display would fluctuate like hell. could be due to my untrained heart, strange rhythm or the somewhat unique shape of my chest.

No problem with this one, at all.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - You get what you pay for!
Paying less, I got less, but that doesn't mean it has no worth. This heart monitor watch work great for what I got it to do.


Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - product OK, amazon qc is a problem
After reading many reviews of heart rate monitors, I selected the HR-100C as a gift for my uncle. However, I was totally embarrassed because the monitor arrived with dead batteries in it. My uncle called Omron and was told he needed to take it to a watch shop to have the battery replaced. So, if you think you're getting a good deal on a quality product, you may want to reconsider. They capitalize on the hassle of doing a return.
