InBody120 is useful for following fat and muscle while changing your diet or activity. A meaningful consultation benefits from the full computer-generated report; the small display shows only part of the results.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
