Can someone tell me what does the readings on your scale all mean?
What does the muscle and water mean? What is a good reading?
I found a chart for the body fat percentage so I understand that but can't find anything about muscle or water so I don't know where I rate for these measurements
My age is 51yrs, female
Muscle is 44.1
Water is 47.3

    All you need to worry about is your overall weight. Impedance scales are notoriously inaccurate.

    If you add those two numbers to your body fat percentage, do they equal 100? :wink:

    Darn, that was my best guess. :angry:

    If you don't still have the manual for the scale, perhaps it is available online at the company's website and you could determine the answer there?
