InBody 970: when to consider it

InBody 970/970S is a professional series for segmental body-composition analysis, including body water and phase angle. The variants differ in frequencies and testing time; location details identify the exact model.

InBody BWA 2.0S: when to consider it

The newer BWA 2.0S combines detailed water results with composition and offers a shorter test than the original BWA. Testing can also take place while lying or seated. It is mainly intended for care where a professional follows water distribution and muscle quantity over time.

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.
