    Absolutely nothing being one point of reference. Depending on how you calculated it body fat percentage readings are fairly inaccurate.

    Hydration plays a huge role on readings and those machines are somewhat inaccurate.

    It means absolutely nothing in the grand scheme of things. Those machines have a margin of error, so the reading might be wrong. As L1zardQueen mentioned, they are influenced by hydration, so how much you've been drinking, if you were sweating a lot during your workout, etc.
