The Phoenix Body Fat Scale is designed for repeated use by an entire family. It can be pre-programmed with 10 user's personal data to customize and speed up the measuring process. Once programmed the Phoenix operates by simply stepping on the scale - the scale automatically turns on and gives both your weight and body fat readings - Just Step & Weigh
The Phoenix works in two modes calibrated for different body types. The results correlate with the most accurate professional method of determining body fat (BIA). You can also use it as a normal weighing scale without the body fat function.
Available in Black or Silver.

It's Important to Know Your Body Fat - Carrying too much body fat can increase - your risk of developing many serious health problems including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Research has shown that maintaining a healthy weight and body fat range can reduce your risk and help prevent the onset of these conditions. Unlike weight, body fat is not always visible and it can't be determined on an ordinary scale. Until recently, estimating body fat has been an expensive, time consuming process usually conducted only through medical and athletic facilities-or simply left to guesswork.
The Phoenix Lets You Take Control - The Phoenix gives you a more complete picture of the shape you're in by accurately determining your body fat percentage. It's an essential tool for monitoring the process of any exercise and diet program because it tells you if you're losing pounds from fat or muscle. The Phoenix gives you the facts you need to make the right fitness decisions. Over time, it provides you with the knowledge you need to take the right steps toward a healthier life.
How the Phoenix Works - The Phoenix uses one of the most reliable methods of analyzing body composition, BIA, short for bioelectrical impedance analysis. BIA is based on a persons height, weight and the strength and speed at which a very safe, low-level electrical signal passes through the muscle and fat in the body. The Phoenix uses a true BIA process that is accurate, convenient and fast. Electrodes built into the Chrome Foot Pads sends a safe electronic signal through the body. Weight and body fat are calculated automatically. The measuring process is conducted using modern strain gauge technology. An aluminum 4-sensor load cell accurately detects your weight with 1% accuracy.
Important Notice - My Weigh's Body Fat Scale/Monitor requires bare feet for proper conductivity while measuring body fat. Do not use the body fat monitor function of these products if you are using the following equipment- Cardiac pacemaker, electrocardiograph and/ or other medical devices implanted in the body or used for support. This, and most electronic weight scales will not work on plush carpeted surfaces. Carpeting dissipates your weight and will prevent accurate readings.

Directions
To get the most accurate readings: - Be sure there are no sources of interference such as Cell or Cordless phones, etc.. - Be sure you are barefoot (otherwise the body fat function wont work). - Be sure both feet touch the electrodes on the measuring platform firmly - Stand erect on the platform and remain perfectly still - Try to wait about three hours after waking, eating, or hard exercise before taking measurements. - Try to take readings at the same time of day. - Be sure that the soles of your feet are clean. - The reading may not be accurate if the soles of your foot are too dry or covered with large area of thick calluses. - Measurements taken under other conditions may not give the same absolute reading values. However, the readings are accurate monitoring changes in body fat percentage as long as they are taken in a consistent manner.
WARNING: This scale may interfere with pacemakers and other electronic Medical devices. Do not use or allow anyone to use this device that uses a pacemaker or other electronic medical device.
