InBody Scans in MaroubraMeasure What the Scales Cannot
Body weight tells you almost nothing on its own. An InBody 570 scan separates fat mass from skeletal muscle, breaks it down limb by limb, and gives you a benchmark you can actually train against.
- InBody 570 multi-frequency scanner
- Results explained by a coach
- Members and non-members
What it measures
One scan, a full picture of your body composition.
- Body fat mass and body fat percentage
- Skeletal muscle mass, tracked separately from fat
- Segmental lean analysis for each arm, each leg and the trunk
- Total body water and its intracellular and extracellular split
- Visceral fat level, the fat stored around the organs
- Basal metabolic rate estimate, used to set calorie targets
- An overall InBody score you can compare scan to scan
This is why two people can weigh the same and be in completely different physical condition, and why the scale can sit still for a fortnight while your body is genuinely changing underneath it.
Why weight alone misleads
Losing 4 kg is a good result or a bad one depending entirely on what the 4 kg was made of.
If it was fat and your muscle held steady, the plan is working. If a chunk of it was muscle, you have made yourself smaller and weaker, and the weight will usually come back.
Scanning at the start and repeating it every few weeks is the difference between adjusting a plan on evidence and adjusting it on a hunch.
What happens on the day
From arrival to a plan you can act on.
- 01
Arrive and prepare
Remove shoes and socks, and let the team know if you have any implanted electronic medical device. The scanner needs bare hands and feet on the electrodes.
- 02
Complete the scan
Stand on the platform, hold the handles and stay still. The scan takes under a minute and there is nothing uncomfortable about it.
- 03
Review the report
Your coach walks you through the printed result sheet: fat mass, muscle mass, segmental analysis, visceral fat and your InBody score, in plain language.
- 04
Adjust the plan
The numbers become decisions. Calorie and protein targets, training emphasis and session frequency are set or corrected based on what the scan shows.
What you take home
A printed report and, more importantly, an interpretation.
You leave with your full InBody result sheet. Members have every scan kept on file so progress can be compared over months and years rather than remembered approximately.
The report on its own is a page of numbers. The value is in a coach who has read thousands of them explaining what your specific result means for your next four weeks of training and eating.
An InBody scan is a fitness assessment tool, not a medical diagnosis, and it does not screen for or treat any condition. Results are estimates and vary with hydration, food, alcohol and recent exercise. Speak with your doctor about any health concern. Bioelectrical impedance is not recommended for people with a pacemaker or other implanted electronic device.
Measured, not guessed
What repeat scanning looks like in practice.
Steve
Body fat from 46.6% to 39.0% and muscle mass from 38.2 kg to 41.2 kg in six weeks.
Shannon
10 kg of fat lost, 3 kg of muscle gained and a 6 point visceral fat reduction.
Individual member results measured on the studio InBody 570. Results vary with starting point, attendance and consistency.
Common questions
InBody scanning, answered.
For the most comparable results, scan at a similar time of day each time, avoid eating a large meal or training in the couple of hours beforehand, avoid alcohol the day before, and use the bathroom before you step on. Remove shoes, socks and heavy jewellery.
The scan itself takes under a minute. Allow extra time with your coach afterwards to walk through the report and turn the numbers into changes to your training or nutrition, which is the part that actually matters.
The InBody 570 uses multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance. It is a reliable tool for tracking change over time when conditions are kept consistent, but it is an estimate, not a laboratory measurement. Trends across repeat scans matter far more than any single number.
Bioelectrical impedance devices are not recommended for people with a pacemaker or other implanted electronic medical device. If you are pregnant, or you have a medical condition you are unsure about, speak with your doctor first and tell the 6X team before scanning.
Most members scan roughly every four to eight weeks. That is long enough for real change to show up and short enough to catch a plan that is not working before months are lost.
