The InBody Body Composition Analyzer goes beyond the scale or traditional BMI testing.
A 15 – 120 second scan gives you a complete body composition analysis and allows you to see your fat, muscle, and water levels
What exactly “I-shape” in Inbody Scans means?
Muscle, Fat, & Obesity Risk
“I-Shape” Body Type
If the length of the bars for your Weight, Skeletal Muscle Mass, and Body Fat Mass roughly form a straight line, you have an I-shaped body type.
Although people with this body type are often at a healthy weight or body fat percentage, there are still areas they can focus on to maintain or improve overall health.
The Basic Body Types: “I-Shape”
An I-shaped individual has a “balanced” body composition, meaning their Weight, Skeletal Muscle Mass, and Body Fat Mass bars roughly form a straight line.
Although people with this body composition are often at a healthy weight or body fat percentage, they can still have health risks if they have too much body fat.
WHY THIS MATTERS
Typically, if you have an I-shaped body type, you have a proportional muscle-fat balance. You are in a great position to focus on gaining muscle mass or reducing body fat to improve your overall physique.
