Overview of InBody Analysis
Dietor's InBody analysis provides a comprehensive assessment of your body composition using proven methods and your personal profile data. This analysis goes beyond simple weight tracking to give you insights into your overall health and fitness.
Comprehensive InBody analysis with detailed health metrics and visual progress indicators
AI-Powered Calculations
All metrics are calculated using proven methods based on your personal data including age, gender, height, weight, and activity level to give you personalized health insights.
Key Health Metrics
WHO-standardized body weight assessment relative to height.
Estimated body fat using ACE (American Council on Exercise) standards.
Daily calories burned at rest to maintain basic body functions.
Estimated body water content for hydration assessment.
BMI Classification & Health Assessment
Body Mass Index provides an initial assessment of weight status based on your height and weight:
BMI Limitations
While BMI is a useful screening tool, it has limitations:
- Doesn't distinguish between muscle and fat mass
- May not be accurate for athletes with high muscle mass
- Doesn't account for fat distribution
- Best used alongside other health metrics
Body Fat Percentage Analysis
Body fat percentage provides a more accurate assessment of body composition than BMI alone:
ACE Body Fat Categories

Metabolic Analysis
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
Your BMR represents the number of calories your body burns at rest to maintain basic physiological functions like breathing, circulation, and cell production.
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)
Your TDEE shows how many calories you burn in a typical day, including exercise and daily activities:
- Sedentary: Little or no exercise, desk job
- Light Activity: Light exercise 1-3 days/week
- Moderate Activity: Moderate exercise 3-5 days/week
- High Activity: Hard exercise 6-7 days/week
- Very High Activity: Very hard exercise, physical job
Advanced Body Composition Metrics
Lean Body Mass
This represents your total body weight minus fat mass. It includes your muscles, bones, organs, and other tissues. Having more lean body mass means a higher metabolism and better overall health.
Body Surface Area
A measure of your total body surface area, which helps determine appropriate medication dosages and assess overall body size relative to metabolic needs.
Health Risk Assessment
Visceral Fat Assessment
Dietor estimates visceral fat levels based on your measurements to help you understand potential health risks:
