What is muscle bulk (MUS)?

The muscle bulk (MUS) value shows the weight of

locomotor system muscles, smooth muscles (heart

and digestive system) and water in these muscles.

Control of muscle bulk is especially important for

people with excessive weight. Weight loss may lead

to decrease of fat tissues, but only if you gain muscle

bulk at the same time.

What is bone mass (BON)?

Bone tissues are the base of human skeleton; they are

solid and resistant to external stress, protecting inter-

nal organs, and together with the muscle tissue the

bone tissues provide the ability of a human to move.

Bone mass measurement is based on calculating

the minerals mass in a human body (calcium or other

matters). Research has showed that development

of muscle tissues makes the skeleton stronger. This

fact should be taken into account when making up a

diet and calculating physical activity to maintain the

bones strong and healthy.

Bone mass (BON) practically doesn't change; how-

ever, some decrease is possible due to many factors

(weight, height, age, sex). That's why this manual

does not contain standard values and recommenda-

tions concerning the bone mass.

Recommended level of daily calorie intake

(KCAL)

The level of daily calorie intake (KCAL) is the amount

of energy required by a human body at rest to main-

tain its vital functions (for instance, if you merely stay

in bed for 24 hours). The required amount of calories

significantly depends on the weight, height and age

of a person. This amount of calories is required by

the human body and it should be regained by means

of food. If you receive less calories for a long time, it

may harm your health.

Analysis of weighing results

As a rule, short-term changes of weight within several

days are the result of minor loss of liquid in your body

tissues. Analyze the results of regular weight measure-

ments taken throughout a long time. Evaluation of the

results is based on changes of total weight and tissue

percentage and depends on the duration of the period

within which the measurements have been taken.

Short-term indication changes during a day can be

significantly different from the indication changes

within a week or a month.

As a rule, short-term indication changes are con-

nected with percentage of liquid in body tissues,

and medium- and long-term changes are caused by

changes in the amount of fat and muscle bulk.

For instance, short-term weight loss and simul-

–

taneous growth or constant amount of fat in body

tissues may be caused by decreased amount of

liquid as a result of physical exercises, visiting

sauna or may happen at quick weight loss.

Medium-term increase of weight, decrease of fat

–

amount or constant fat amount in body tissues

may be caused by increase of muscle bulk.

If you notice simultaneous decrease of total

–

weight and fat percentage, it means that your

diet works.

The

best

results

–

combine diet with various physical exercises,

in this case you can observe the medium-term

increase of muscle mass in body tissues.
