The RD-545IM IRONMAN provides an in-depth analysis of 26 body composition readings. Measurements include: weight, body fat, muscle mass, muscle quality score, physique rating, bone mass, visceral fat, basal metabolic rate, metabolic age, total body water, and BMI. The addition of the hand electrodes allows the RD-545IM IRONMAN to perform a segmental fat and muscle analysis of the arms, legs, and trunk. Analyzing the balance of muscle mass and muscle quality between the arms and legs is essential for athletes competing in speed sports such as biking and swimming. A newly developed pulse measurement function provides a resting heart rate value that can be tracked along with body composition, linking cardiovascular health to body composition values and fitness. Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 Technology automatically uploads all this data to the free Tanita HealthyEdge Mobile App (iPhone iOS 8 or above, Android phone 4.4 or above and Amazon Fire Tablet Bluetooth LE support(2014) and above). Viewing results and tracking progress is simple with easy-to-read charts, graphs and assessments. The RD-545IM IRONMAN is an FDA cleared 510(k) type 2 medical device, with a weighing capacity of 440 lb (200 kg). It uses BIA technology, which sends a safe, low-level electrical signal from foot and hand electrodes through the body to provide both a full body as well as segmental analysis. BIA is quick and non-invasive, and is one of the most thoroughly tested and reliable ways to measure body composition, clinically comparable to DXA (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry) and hydrostatic (underwater) weighing.
