Omron HBF-306C Handheld Body Fat Loss Monitor

want a reason to stay on the healthy diet. If you give up before monitoring your body fat and measuring inches, you are looking for the easy way out. This is the easiest way to monitor body fat, just a few clicks and it gives a great reading.I started a lifestyle change around xmas time and like usual followed with a new years resolution to make a lifestyle change. As a PE teacher and former college athlete i was not setting a great example to my students and players. While in college I had done body comp tests to better understand the practice and each method. Like most reviews will say there are pros and cons to each but I actually witnessed a study against the gold standard, under water weighing, the omron did very well. If i remember right most amateurs with the calipers where not doing so hot. This seemed to me,factoring in the ease of use and speed of response that this is the best way to go.Personally my girlfriend and I use it at least once a week to monitor fat loss. We use it at the same time every morning every week, take two readings and use it for feedback on our diet progress. Women especially dont always lose lbs on the diet we have implemented so I wanted extra proof and motivation to keep at it as a family. As a teacher I will be using it as a tool in physical education to explain healthy body weight and body comp.I know that many factors can skew the numbers here but you dont have to be a rocket scientist or even know what a variable is to use common sense and test the same way every time. If you control your hydration variable alone you should be fine.for 30 bucks get this product, use it the right way and you will be able to track your progress and tweak your diet and fitness routine to see the results you want
