Customer Reviews of FatTrack GOLD Digital Body Fat Caliper with FREE MyoTape
Customer Review: Not only tracks fat, but can be a motivation source
Summary: 5 Stars
No guessing or benefit of the doubt here. Exactly and quickly measures body fat for any age and gender. Will track 3 people complete with records. Know your fat % in about a minute. I'm a mid 30's dad who always lifted weights, so with bigger muscles it helped to look "in shape" even when my waist went up to 36". Testing with Fat Track every week was awesome! I went to a 31" Calvin Klein jeans, (working out OF COURSE)still weighing about 200 pounds. How awesome THAT felt! Better than high school, baby! For my wife too! It REALLY helps to see the results a week after you don't exercise and eat that fried seafood dinner, or go nuts with the chocolate fudge! Your fat % goes UP over the next week or so! Get motivation from exercise...you see the results. We lost ours and I'm ordering another one because BOTH of us are gaining weight now without it...that tells me it REALLY makes a difference. (We must lie to ourselves, but Fat Track tells us the horrible-or terrific- truth.)Customer Review: Very accurate! Very easy to use!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read these reviews and wondered how the Bodybuilding Federation could endorse a product that got these bad reviews.
So, I bought one. I love it!
Now, I can see how some people may not have been able to use it effectively, because it only opens a few inches and is probably more for fit people than for heavy people. Bit if you are fit and just want to see how fit, this is the device for you.
I find the results very repeatable. Each of the three measurement sites have been repeatable within 1mm over dozens of trys.
The Myotape is also cool. Use it and mybodycomp.com to get your body fat percentage and see just how close the number is to the number the calipers give you. Amazingly, for me, the number was identical.
Great product! Much better than my body fat scale which gives me double the number that this gives me.
Customer Review: PersonalFitnessZone.com recommends measuring body fat to track weight loss progress!
Summary: 5 Stars
I've tried several types of body fat calipers, and these seem to be the easiest to use, yielding the most accurate results. I always recommend AccuMeasure Body Fat Caliper to folks that are starting a weight loss program since the scale can be so unfriendly at times, especially when a person incorporates strength training into their fitness program (It's true! Muscle *does* weigh more than fat!). The bonus measuring tape is an asset as well since it makes it easier to track the inches that you are losing!Customer Review: Fat Track Gold - Better than Scale
Summary: 5 Stars
This product was easy to use, and easy to remember how to use. I was worried I'd have to go back to the instructions 5 times before I remembered how to do it each time but, it only took the 2nd time.
I feel this is a better way to track progress over a scale. Scales that track body fat base it on water retention which is not fat. Where as this 3 spot marker makes it hard to fudge any results or just screw up taking the results.
Customer Review: Great wasy to track results
Summary: 5 Stars
I have been using this product every week. It is fairly easy to use once you get the hang of it. True...accuracy depends of the person taking the measurements. What is important is to be consistent in the way the measurements are taken.
As far as the results shown, they can vary for other devices and you should always have in mind a +- 3% body fat range when looking at the fat % shown by the device.
