Same Age Comparison
Full Body Sensing Technology for a more accurate and
precise body composition measurement.

You can conrm if reduction in weight is correct or
not by viewing variation of other body conditions
except weight.
As the example on the left, because of reduction in
weight, the skeletal muscle increases. This is the
correct method of reduction in weight but can not
be detected easily.
Subcutaneous fat and
skeletal muscle at different
parts are displayed. Its
level is displayed through
comparison with same age
and same BMI.
The average is investigation
result of our company. Please
do not judge health condition in
accordance with it.
* The monitor cannot display same age
comparison for users under 18 years old.
Same Age Comparison
Progress Chart
Track the progress of your weight reduction plan up to 90 days ago.
Understand body condition through same age comparison
Body age is based on your resting metabolism. Body age is calculated by using your weight and body fat percentage to produce a guide
to judge whether your body age is above or below the average for your actual age. To know your body age is useful to improve your health
condition.
Body age varies according to Body composition and resting metabolism, even if your height and weight is the same
The gures below shows some examples of body age.
The example on the left has a body age of 30, or average body composition for the actual age.
The example in the middle has a lower body fat percentage than average and higher resting metabolism, which results in a body age of 25 that is younger
than the actual age.
The example on the right has a higher body fat percentage than average and lower resting metabolism, which results in a body age of 35 that is older than
the actual age.

Result of same age comparison
Everybody is concerned about their weight.
But what is the basis for determining your
ideal weight?
The key is BMI.
BMI is short for Body Mass Index. This index
uses the following simple formula to indicate
the ratio between weight and height of a
person.
BMI = weight (kg) / height (m) / height (m)
The OMRON Body composition monitor uses the Height
information stored in your personal prole number to
calculate your BMI.
Interpreting the BMI Result
Visceral fat is found in the abdomen and
surrounding vital organs. It is different
from fat found directly underneath the
skin, which is referred to as subcutaneous
fat. Visceral fat can go largely unnoticed
because it’s not visible to the naked eye.
One way visceral fat can be seen is through
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
Too much visceral fat is thought to be closely linked to
increased levels of fat in the bloodstream, which may
lead to conditions such as high cholesterol, heart disease
and type 2 diabetes. In order to prevent or improve these
conditions, it is important to try to reduce the amount of
visceral fat levels to an acceptable level.
Interpreting the Visceral Fat Level Result
NOTE: Visceral fat levels are relative and not absolute values.
What is Subcutaneous fat?
Subcutaneous fat = fat below the skin
Subcutaneous fat not only accumulates around the
stomach but also around the upper arms, hips and
thighs, and can cause a distortion of the body’s
proportions. Although not directly linked to increased risk of
disease, it is thought to increase pressure on the heart and
other complications.
Body fat serves a vital role in storing energy
and protecting internal organs. We carry two
types of fat in our bodies: 1) essential fat
which is stored in small amounts to protect
the body and 2) adipose tissue (stored fat)
provides cushion and insulation
to internal organs, covers the nerves, moves
vitamins throughout the body and is the
largest reserve of stored energy available for activity. While too
much body fat may be unhealthy, having too little fat can be
just as unhealthy. Also, the distribution of body fat in men and
women is different, so the basis for classifying the body fat
percentage is different between the genders.
What is Body Fat Percentage?
Body fat percentage refers to the amount of body fat mass in
regards to the total body weight expressed as a percentage.
BMI
Less than 18.5 Underweight
18.5 or more and less than 25 Normal
25 or more and less than 30 Overweight
30 or more Obese
Classication (by the WHO)
Visceral Fat Level
0.5 - 9.5 0 (Normal)
10.0 - 14.5 + (High)
15.0 - 30.0 ++ (Very High)
Level Classication
Regardless of your activity level, a minimum
level of energy is required to sustain the body’s
everyday functions. Resting metabolism,
the amount of calories needed to supply the
body with the minimum level of energy, differs
between individuals depending on variables
such as age, weight, body composition, and
energy expenditure.

What is skeletal muscle … Muscle is divided
into two types, muscle in internal organs, such
as the heart, and muscle attached to bones
that is used to move the body. Skeletal muscle
can be increased through exercise and other
activity.
What is skeletal muscle ratio … Refers to
the amount of skeletal muscle mass in regards
to the total body weight expressed as a
percentage.
Skeletal muscle ratio (%) = {Skeletal muscle
mass (kg) /
Body weight (kg)} × 100
This product uses BI (Bioelectrical Impedance) to calculate
your skeletal muscle mass.
Keep skeletal muscle and strengthen it to make corporeity not
easily become fat. This product feature is the measurement
of skeletal muscle ratio. If you strengthen skeletal muscle and
improve basal metabolism, you will not get fat easily.
