 Each Accu-Measure Fitness 2000 model comes with an original Accu-Measure Personal Body Fat Tester, men's and women's Body Fat Measurement Charts, Instructions for Body Fat Measurement, Body Fat Tracking Chart, and questions and answers on body fat. Accurate - This registered medical device is clinically proven to be more accurate than lengthy, complicated methods costing thousands of dollars. Raised markings provide clear, precise measurements. Reliable - Patented audible and tactile click ensures correct, consistent, and repeatable measurements. Ease of use - Get test results in seconds in three easy steps. Private and Personal- It's the easiest way to measure your own body fat percentage at home. Inexpensive - Costs less than a single body fat test from your doctor or health club. Convenient - Avoids the inconvenience, time, fees, and lack of privacy of a body fat test at a clinic. Durable - Manufactured from DuPont Delrin, providing years of reliable, accurate use. A clinical study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, Validity of Self-Assessment Techniques for Estimating Percent Fat in Men and Women, found that: 1) Self-testing of % body fat with the Accu-Measure was as accurate as results from multi-site measurements and calculations taken by an experienced clinical investigator using a Lange caliper. 2) % body fat calculations with the Accu-Measure were within 1.1 percentage points of underwater weighing results. "A salient feature of the Accu-Measure is that it is an inexpensive self-assessment technique that requires little skill to administer, therefore offering an attractive alternative for individuals who wish to determine their body composition without the inconvenience, expense, and lack of privacy of conventional body fat testing at clinics or recreational facilities." -- Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, December 1998 |
