InBody 270: when to consider it

The original InBody270 gives a quick overview of fat, muscle and their distribution. It suits regular diet and training consultations, including testing at different locations. Its output coverage differs from the newer 270S.

InBody R20: when to consider it

R20 was developed for home body-composition monitoring and also appears in some fitness services. It gives a basic muscle-and-fat overview. For a more detailed consultation, it matters whether the provider also uses the computer report.

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.
