After doing a decent amount of research on this particular method of determining body fat percentage I was thinking it would be a waste of time. Over and over again I read how it would vary a lot and not give very accurate readings. With no other alternatives that looked much better or in this price range I decided to give this product a try and see for myself. I have used it every day since the day I received it to look at an average as opposed to basing any conclusions of one reading once a week. It never varies more than one percent from day to day. As far as I can tell the readings it is giving me are very accurate. To get results that are this consistent I created a definite routine with it. I use it in the morning just after I get up before I eat anything. You have to hold the unit in the exact same place every time, and with the same amount of pressure. I have noticed the tighter I hold it the lower the body fat percentage it displays. I choose to use a medium grip that is easy to reproduce day after day. I have been strength training since receiving this product and tracked my progress. In conjunction with the use of a scale I have seen my weight drop and my body fat percentage stay the same if I am eating too little and losing muscle. I have seen my weight and body fat percentage drop if I have a good balance of exercise and diet. I have also seen my weight stay the same and my body fat percentage drop when I am eating a lot and doing intense workouts. Without this product I would be completely in the dark as to my progress. It has helped me fine tune my workouts and diet, which has probably shaved months off the time it would take me to do it just using a scale and looking in the mirror to see if I am gaining or losing muscle. If you use it consistently and apply some common sense to this product I think you will find it a cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle. After reading hundreds of reviews on this product and others that are similar, I have concluded that most of the problems other people experience with it have to do with improper use. Unfortunately, there are a lot of great products with bad reviews because consumers refuse to spend the time to do a little research and apply a little common sense.
