How BodyIntel works.
A BodyIntel scan takes under 60 seconds. No preparation, no discomfort. Just stand on the InBody 970 and receive your full body composition report. Here is exactly what happens.
Before your scan: no preparation required
There is no fasting protocol for an InBody 970 scan. A few simple habits help you get a more consistent result:
- Stay well hydrated in the hours before
- Wear light gym clothing
- Remove shoes and socks before the scan
- Download the free InBody app and register with the mobile number you booked with
- Bring your booking confirmation or name
Try to avoid
- Intense exercise in the 4 hours prior
- Heavy meals in the 2 hours prior
- Excessive caffeine immediately beforehand
Four steps from arrival to answers.
Check in with a BodyIntel operator
Arrive at your booked venue and time. Your operator confirms your details and your consent, which covers data storage and acknowledgment that this is a body composition education service, not a medical assessment. Check-in takes under two minutes.
Step on the InBody 970
Remove your shoes and socks, step onto the footpads and grip the hand electrodes. The InBody 970 sends safe, imperceptible electrical signals through your body at multiple frequencies. The entire scan takes under 60 seconds. You feel nothing.
Receive your full report
Your results land in the InBody app within minutes. It includes skeletal muscle mass, body fat percentage, segmental lean analysis by limb, total body water, your Phase Angle benchmark, basal metabolic rate and more. The report is yours to take to your coach, trainer, dietitian or health professional.
Your operator explains your results
Your operator walks you through each metric, where you sit relative to benchmarks for your age and gender group, and what to watch over time. Operators explain what your data means in a body composition context; they do not provide clinical assessments, medical advice or dietary prescriptions.
What's in your scan report.
Skeletal muscle mass
Total lean muscle in kilograms, plus a segmental breakdown showing muscle distribution across your arms, legs and trunk.
Body fat percentage and mass
Your body fat as a percentage of total body weight and the raw mass in kilograms, compared against benchmark ranges for your age and gender group.
Phase Angle
A body composition benchmark that reflects cellular integrity, derived from bioelectrical impedance. Tracked over time as a measure of body composition change. Not a clinical indicator or diagnostic metric.
Total body water
Intracellular and extracellular water balance, one of the key body composition components measured by the InBody 970.
Basal metabolic rate
An estimated measure of caloric expenditure at rest, derived from your lean muscle mass composition. A starting point, not a prescription.
Composition history
On repeat scans, your report shows your previous result alongside your current one, so you can see exactly how your body composition is changing.
