1)
Purpose of the Arm Band:
!
Locates the measurement site on the biceps.
!
Blocks out all external light that might interfere with the estimations when self testing percent body fat.
2)
Using a Biceps Locator or the scale provided on the Arm Band, measure the length between the armpit and the inside of
the elbow. Extend the Arm Band so the Scale is facing up.
NOTE:
This relative body fat is not a direct "Percentage" reading. This value, however, can be used
as a guide to monitor changes in fat distribution within the location measured.
