Has anyone tried the BMI analyzer? Can you tell me how to work that?

The BMI is a simple calculation based upon your height and weight. http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/guidelines/obesity/bmi_tbl.htm

Yes, it can also give the same results in the metric system, as can most of their other models. Hope this helps and I wish you the best in your exercise and calorie tracking.

Just go to you-tube and type in heart fit watch . monitor demonstration. Very simple to use... good luck.

It works fine for me, the thing is you have to stand on the scale until all 3 readings show. Don't get off the scale right after your weight shows, wait for all 3 figures and then you can step off. Also, in order to measure body fat and water weight your info must be entered into the scale. You should have created a profile for yourself listing your age and height, and when you step on the scale you should select your profile only for accurate readings (you can create multiple profiles). If that doesn't work, maybe your scale is defective.

It will know your general weight and bodyfat percent and can distinguish the user based on that. My sister and are generally the same weight (give or take) but my bodyfat is less than hers so we both can use the scale with no problems. I just step on, it measures me, and then tells me the user it assumes is using it. It's never been wrong yet, but you can change the user if it guessed wrong.

I wish I could sincerely answer your question. This device has not been the best so far. Constant calibration and off results. I would suggest investing a little bit more money on a better scale.

Trust me when I tell you, you WILL see results from this program! I followed the workout calendar and within the first 2 weeks I saw amazing results! I am naturally petite (112lbs 5'5" tall) but was looking to tone and shape my body, and just feel more healthy in general. This workout was not only fun (and sometimes really funny) but was challenging too. It will make your "bum bum" more full and rounded. If you have a "big booty", it will tone and shape it.. Never minimizing it! BBL is so completely worth the money! :) I guarantee you will be more than happy with the results! Trust me when I tell you, you WILL see results from this program!

It didn't help me. I lost zero pounds, no change in my face, hands, feet, toes, ears...absolutely nothing. Save your money and just make sure you are burning more calories than u are consuming. I use the Fitbit Force to track calories burned, keeps me focused, informed and moving.

Honestly, I returned my Striiv because it was too difficult to use. I bought a FitBit which I use every day. It coordinates with MyFitnessPal eating and exercising program, sends me activity for the past week so I can compare. I love my FitBit but cannot help you with the Striiv.

I'm guessing you mean the pedometer? I think it works as well as pedometers in general work. I've never owned a pedometer that was 100% accurate. I bought the watch for my dad so I haven't used it myself. He hasn't complained that it doesn't work but he feels like I do, not many pedometers are accurate.

Yes. It is very actuate. It measures weight, BMI and water weight also. Weight yourself 1st thing in the morning before you eat or drink anything for best results. Just enter your age, height, female/male etc. Very easy to use and to store info automatically.

Hi Blake, everyone is different and your body may respond differently but it worked for me. I lost over 40 pounds with it and my appetite was suppressed. I was able to cut back on snacking and that helped tremendously.

Yes, if you connect it to My Fitness Pal it will tell you you have burned so many calories and now have them to enjoy! There is a fork and knife on the UP application that you can put your foods eaten into. I haven't used it, but it tracks your foods. It is seriously one of my most favorite posessions, and many people at work are now wearing them.

In my opinion I would return the scale to get your money back and spend it on another scale. This brand/model is not worth the time or money. It has to many glitches to even be useful and could detour your motivation if the reading is off to far (as was the case with mine - the 3rd one that is after returning the first 2!). Best of luck.

I didn't notice weight loss but I wasn't watching calories. You might try live strong, it will count your calories, you can figure out how many you need and it counts your step activity too. It helped me start losing.

BMI is calculated/reported after your weight on the scale itself. The app only tracks weight and BMI, but you can always export or transmit the data to other apps that may calculate out water, bone & lean mass for you.

I read that the method these scales use to measure % body fat (bioelectrical impedance analysis) is highly inaccurate. The best you can hope for is spotting trends over time (i.e. does % body fat decrease over a longer time period). The fact that you have to give the machine all kinds of parameters (height, age, fitness level etc) clearly shows that the machine is not measuring your body fat, but is using a mathematical algorithm to come up with an educated 'guess' what your % body fat might be.
