Body Composition Scanning in Marion, Ohio
Achieving your fitness goals can be an uphill journey that oftentimes ends in confusion and frustration. Much of this stems from beginning an exercise or diet plan that is not optimized for your body’s composition, which may lead to a lack of progress and ultimately failure.

In just 45 seconds a snapshot of all the attributes of your physique can be taken to develop a comprehensive health and fitness plan that is tailored specifically for you.
InBody Body Composition Analysis
InBody performs body composition scanning by sending a small electrical current through the body to deliver highly accurate measurements of a person’s body fat as well as water, lean mass, overall weight, and more.
The most accurate way to understand your body’s state of health is through a Body Composition Analysis (BCA). Body composition scanning with InBody has become the gold standard to use at top medical facilities across the globe, delivering an accurate assessment of body composition, transforming the landscape of health and fitness.
What Is a Body Composition Analysis?
InBody body composition scanning at Elite MedSpa in Marion, Ohio, measures your total body composition by using state-of-the-art technology to analyze your body fat, muscle mass, bone density and body water content. The result is a comprehensive report that will help identify areas where you can improve your overall health and wellness. With this information, we can create a plan tailored to your fitness and health goals. We can, therefore, track progress markers such as fat percentage and lean muscle mass to ensure you’re achieving your desired result.
Understanding your results
After your body composition scanning is complete, the InBody results sheet will measure the essential components of your body in order to design a personalized fitness plan that is optimized to your unique physique.
Lean Body Mass
Lean body mass is the amount of muscle and other healthy tissues in your body. Muscle is made up of protein and water, while other tissues include bones, organs, ligaments, tendons, blood vessels, nerves, cartilage and connective tissue. Lean body mass is a key indicator of health because it largely reflects the amount of calories you burn each day.
Body Fat Mass
Body fat mass is the amount of excess fatty tissue stored in your body. This is the most common area of concern for most people. By measuring the total amount of fat in your body, we are able to determine whether changes in your weight are due to water weight, muscle loss, or true fat loss.
Body Fat Percentage
Body fat percentage refers to the ratio of fat mass to total body weight. Your body fat percentage is determined by measuring the amount of fat in your body compared to your total body weight. This determines how lean and toned your body looks– and how much muscle definition is shown in the body.
Total Body Weight
Your total body weight will be accurately measured to observe any fluctuations and changes over time. This metric is most often focused on by those who embark on a fitness journey, however, your weight alone does not provide enough information about your physique to develop an optimized tailored plan, because this includes attributes such as body water. This is what makes total body composition scanning with InBody important.
Basal Metabolic Rate
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the number of calories burned per day when at rest. It represents the minimum level of metabolism needed to sustain life. Basal metabolic rate is influenced by factors such as age, gender, height, genetics, lifestyle habits, and activity levels. This is important in determining the appropriate amount of calories in your nutrition plan to be consumed in order to reach your fitness goal.
