Body Composition (Tanita / Styku)

Body composition with the Tanita scale and the Styku 3D scan. 10 minutes. Muscle mass, body fat, hydration and circumferences — the baseline that makes training and nutrition goals measurable. Included in all five packages, from Basic (CHF 189) to All-In (CHF 599). Available in Kloten and Zurich West.

At a glance

• Duration: 10 minutes — scale plus 3D scan

Six values. Your body in numbers.

• Body fat (%) — share of fat mass in body weight. Weight management and progress tracking.
• Skeletal muscle mass (kg) — total and per body segment. Strength building and side-to-side asymmetry.
• Body water (%) — hydration status. Recovery and comparability of measurements.
• Visceral fat (index) — fat around the organs. Health risk and longevity.
• Basal metabolic rate (kcal/day) — calories burned at rest. Nutrition planning and energy balance.

Frequently asked before booking

How does the measurement work?

The Tanita scale uses bio-impedance (a weak current you cannot feel) to measure fat, muscle and water. The Styku scanner captures your body in 3D and calculates circumferences and body shape. Both together take about ten minutes.

Do I need to prepare?

For comparable values: always at the same time of day, not directly after training, with an empty bladder and in tight sports clothing. You do not need to be fasted.

Who should not be measured?

With a pacemaker or other electronic implants, and during pregnancy, we skip the bio-impedance measurement — the 3D scan is still possible.

How accurate are the values?

Absolute values vary by one to two percent depending on hydration. What matters is the trend under the same conditions — which is why repeating the measurement every 8–12 weeks pays off.

When does a re-test make sense?

Every 8–12 weeks during a training or nutrition block — included in every package anyway; as a single measurement within 12 weeks with a 10% discount.
