InBody 270: when to consider it

The original InBody270 gives a quick overview of fat, muscle and their distribution. It suits regular diet and training consultations, including testing at different locations. Its output coverage differs from the newer 270S.

InBody BWA 2.0S: when to consider it

The newer BWA 2.0S combines detailed water results with composition and offers a shorter test than the original BWA. Testing can also take place while lying or seated. It is mainly intended for care where a professional follows water distribution and muscle quantity over time.

Only differences and undocumented values

The filter keeps rows with undocumented values. More features or a different value alone do not establish better measurement accuracy.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
