InBody Test (Scale)
What is the InBody Test?
What does your weight really represent? When you step on a scale, you can’t see how much muscle or fat you have—all you see is a number with no context.
Go beyond the scale with the InBody Test, a non-invasive, quick, and accurate body composition analysis that provides a detailed breakdown of your weight in terms of muscle, fat, and water.
Your comprehensive yet easy-to-understand measurements will display on the free InBody app that you download on your phone. Please use your cell number as your ID on the app.
