InBody Results Interpretation

InBody Test?

The InBody Test not only examines your Total Body Water, Fat, Protein, and Minerals, it also reveals percentage of body fat, muscle distribution, and body water balance; components that are key in understanding more about your body.

  • Body Composition Analysis
Body weight is the sum of Total Body Water, Protein, Minerals, and Body Fat Mass. Maintain a balanced body composition to stay healthy.
  • Muscle-Fat Analysis
Compare the bar lengths of Skeletal Muscle Mass and Body Fat Mass. The longer the Skeletal Muscle Mass bar is compared to the Body Fat Mass bar, the stronger the body is. Skeletal Muscle Mass is the amount of muscle attached to the bones. Body Fat Mass is the sum of subcutaneous fat, visceral fat, and fat surrounding muscles. Subcutaneous fat is found beneath the skin, while visceral fat is found surrounding internal organs in the abdomen.
  • Obesity Analysis
Body mass index (BMI) is an index used to determine obesity by using height and weight. Percent body fat (PBF) is the percentage of body fat compared to body weight.
  • Segmental Lean Analysis
Evaluates whether the muscles are adequately developed in the body. The top bar shows the comparison of muscle mass to ideal weight while the bottom bar shows that to the current weight.
  • ECW Ratio Analysis
ECW Ratio, the ratio of Extracellular Water to Total Body Water, is an important indicator of body water balance. In a healthy state, ECW Ratio should be between 0.36 to 0.39. If your ECW Ratio is higher than .39, please consult your physician.
  • Body Composition History
Track the history of the body compositional change. Take the InBody Test periodically to monitor your progress. Continuously measuring under the same ID allows the InBody to save each test for future comparison. The Body Composition History allows an individual to track the changes in body composition over their most recent 8 results (if selecting 'recent') or a cumulative graph that shows the progress from the first test results to the most recent results (if selecting 'total').
  • InBody Score
This score shows the evaluation of your body composition, which includes muscle, fat, and water in the body.
  • Visceral Fat Area
Visceral Fat Area is the estimated area of fat surrounding internal organs in the abdomen. Maintain a Visceral Fat Area under 100cm² to stay healthy.
  • Body Type
The body type based on BMI and Percent Body Fat.
  • Weight Control
See how your body measures up to the recommended Weight, Muscle Mass, and Body Fat Mass for a good balance. The '+' means to gain and the '-' means to lose.
  • Nutrition Evaluation
Evaluates whether the amount of Protein, Minerals, and Body Fat is adequately distributed in the body.
  • Obesity Evaluation
Evaluates obesity based on BMI and Percent Body Fat.
  • Body Balance Evaluation
Evaluates the balance of the body based on Segmental Lean Analysis.
  • Segmental Fat Analysis
Evaluates whether the amount of fat is adequately distributed throughout the body. Each bar shows fat mass in comparison to the ideal.
  • Segmental Body Water Analysis (Graph)
Evaluates whether the amount of body water is adequately distributed throughout the body. Each bar shows body water in comparison to the ideal.
  • Segmental ICW Analysis
Evaluates the segmental distribution of Intracellular Water throughout the body.
  • Segmental ECW Analysis
Evaluates the segmental distribution of Extracellular Water throughout the body.
  • Segmental Circumference
Segmental Circumference is the estimated outer circumference of each body part based on the body composition.
  • Waist-Hip Ratio (Graph)
Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR) is the ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference.
  • Visceral Fat Level (Graph)
Visceral Fat Level is an indicator based on the estimated amount of fat surrounding internal organs in the abdomen. Maintain a Visceral Fat Level under 10 to stay healthy.
  • Intracellular Water
Intracellular Water is the total amount of water within the body cells.
  • Extracellular Water
Extracellular Water is the total amount of water outside of the body cells.
  • Skeletal Muscle Mass
Skeletal Muscle Mass is the amount of muscle attached to the bones.
  • Basal Metabolic Rate
Basal Metabolic Rate is the minimum number of calories needed to sustain life at a resting state. BMR is directly correlated to Fat Free Mass.
  • Waist-Hip Ratio
Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR) is the ratio of waist circumference to hip circumference.
  • Waist Circumference
Waist Circumference is the outer circumference of the waist.
  • Visceral Fat Level
Visceral Fat Level is an indicator based on the estimated amount of fat surrounding internal organs in the abdomen. Maintain a Visceral Fat Level under 10 to stay healthy.
  • Visceral Fat Area
Visceral Fat Area is the estimated area of fat surrounding internal organs in the abdomen. Maintain a Visceral Fat Area under 100cm² to stay healthy.
  • Obesity Degree
Obesity Degree is the ratio of current weight to ideal weight.
  • Bone Mineral Content
Bone Mineral Content is the amount of minerals in bone.
  • Body Cell Mass
Body Cell Mass is the total mass of all cellular elements in the body, which constitutes all metabolically active tissues of the body.
  • Arm Circumference
Arm Circumference is the estimated circumference of the left upper arm (halfway between shoulder and elbow).
  • Arm Muscle Circumference
Arm Muscle Circumference is the estimated circumference of the left upper arm muscle (halfway between shoulder and elbow).
  • FFMI
Fat Free Mass Index (FFMI) is calculated by dividing Fat Free Mass by height squared.
  • FMI
Fat Mass Index (FMI) is calculated by dividing fat mass by height squared.
  • Blood Pressure (Systolic, Diastolic, Pulse)
Shows the Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure, and Pulse measured by the blood pressure monitor connected to the InBody.
  • Blood Pressure (Mean Artery Pressure, Pulse Pressure, Rate Pressure Product)
Shows the Mean Artery Pressure, Pulse Pressure, and Rate Pressure Product measured by the blood pressure monitor connected to the InBody.
