Omron Handheld BIA Device
Before setting up your Omron device you must first decide whether your client should use the NORMAL or ATHLETE mode. To make this decision calculate your client’s FIT Index.
How to Calculate Your FIT Index
- The Fat Loss Monitor can be set to either NORMAL or ATHLETE mode. Body Composition varies based on your FIT Index.
Calculate your FIT Index by using the following formula:
FIT Index = Frequency x Intensity x Time

- NORMAL – FIT Index < 60
