BIOIMPEDANCE ANALYSIS – AS ESSENTIAL FOR COACHES AS FOR DIETITIANS

Weight monitoring alone is insufficient as it does not allow tracking of the essential elements that make up this 'weight'. With accurate knowledge of your client's fat, muscle, bone and hydration levels, you can offer them a personalised programme perfectly suited to their needs. Biody Coach also motivates members and builds loyalty by regularly showing them their progress and the benefits of the programme you have set up. For the client, it is a concrete moment of reward when they see that their efforts are paying off — encouraging them all the more to continue. The coach or physical trainer can adapt their programme based on the results obtained.

What are the benefits of the Biody Coach for a personal trainer and/or physical preparation specialist?

Why is this technique a driver of profitability?

– The measurement takes only a few seconds, and the prospect visualises on the 'target' indicator what their weight is really made of, namely water, fat, muscle and bones.

– The 'Cible ®' indicator, an AMINOGRAM exclusive, is extremely explicit with its colour zones, allowing the prospect to instantly identify what is going well, what is not, and what needs to be improved. This awareness is a remarkable motivational tool that facilitates the transformation of a prospect into a client.

– Monthly measurement monitoring is a very effective loyalty tool, as it allows members to concretely measure the benefits of the programme provided by their coach.

How to choose your professional bioimpedance analyser?

To make the right choice among the devices available on the market, you need to either know the technique well or be well advised to choose a reliable bioimpedance analyser perfectly suited to its intended use:

– Professional devices differ from consumer scales in terms of measurement quality (reproducibility) and technology (mono-frequency technology and measuring only the lower body); click here to read the article on the difference between impedance scales and eBIODY technologies.

– It is important to know that it is impossible by bioimpedance analysis to measure visceral fat; click here to read the article on visceral fat.

– Multi-frequency bioimpedance analysers provide more information on body composition and a much better quality of analysis, but they are generally very expensive.

– At least 3 frequencies are required for multi-frequency analysis; devices using 2 frequencies often provide incomplete or limited information. Most scientific studies on professional tools focus on mono-frequency (1 frequency: 50 kHz) or multi-frequency (3 frequencies or more). Biody Xpert and Biody Coach are equipped with 5 frequencies, including the 3 essential ones (5 / 50 / 200) and at the price of a quality mono-frequency device.

– Some brands offer product ranges with technologically downgraded equipment and therefore reduced data quality. AMINOGRAM equipment (Biody Xpert and Biody Coach) is all multi-frequency (5 frequencies) and of identical quality level.

– For any body composition analysis technique, age and gender are essential data that, among other things, allow reference values to be qualified. The equations used come from the most important work in bioimpedance analysis, internationally published and recognised.

– Some devices are heavy and bulky, therefore poorly suited for a coach or physical trainer who needs mobile tools.

– The AMINOGRAM teams are available to inform you and can help you compare all the devices currently on the market, with their strengths and weaknesses.

– AMINOGRAM's executives are pioneers of bioimpedance analysis with over 35 years of experience in this field and the launch on the French market of the first body composition measurement devices.

Why choose Biody Coach?

– Ergonomics perfectly suited to coaching: mobile, connected, light, results interpretation available anywhere, anytime, on all devices – smartphone, iPhone, tablet, iPad, PC, Mac.

– Measurement that can be carried out anywhere, both outdoors and indoors.

– Measurement in a few seconds and immediate visualisation of the result.

– A dashboard for interpreting measurement results that is extremely engaging, understandable both by the client and the professional. A wide range of histories in the form of curves and histograms.

– A multi-frequency device whose frequency ranges provide results on all components, including hydration rate of non-fat tissue and the breakdown of total body water into intra- and extracellular water — data as fundamental as muscle and fat mass in a health/wellness rebalancing context.

– A device that offers everything you need to know (fat mass, skeletal muscle mass, total body water, intra- and extracellular water, bone mass index, bone/muscle mass ratio, basal metabolic rate, energy expenditure, deviation between measured and reference values…) including AMINOGRAM exclusives such as: hydration rate excluding fat, % fat mass at constant hydration, body cell mass broken down into intracellular water and metabolic proteins for qualitative analysis of muscle mass, target, comparative indices.

– Software extremely rich in features, from client management to multiple possibilities such as group management, information block management, work plan organisation.

– Results interpretation based not only on measurement results (resistance, reactance, impedance, phase), but also on essential data such as height, weight, age and gender. The equations used come from the most important work in bioimpedance analysis, internationally published and recognised.

– Optionally with nutritional rebalancing software offering additional sales opportunities and better results for people with high body fat.

– Data confidentiality and security: Biody Coach runs in SaaS mode on a secure medical server, providing an absolute data security guarantee.

– The best price/quality ratio.

– A light device (300 g), connected, available anywhere, anytime, and financially affordable for all coaches and physical trainers.
