Track and estimate bodyfat %

Carl Juneau, PhD 2 years ago updated 1 week ago 1

We've already implemented body weight tracking and coaching (with goals, calories, and macros). That was a top feature request.

A few of you also requested we add bodyfat % tracking and estimates. If that's still a priority for you, please vote for that feature here. I'll include some of the comments below.

-Carl

bodyfat % estimator: ok i'm pushing the boat out here, but as with recording weight measurements you could have similar entries for caliper measurements, then your AI can do the donkey work of calculating bodyfat %. It doesn't matter so much that the calculation can be inaccurate as it is the progression that lets you know how you are progressing, and people judge their final destination not by a number but by how they look in the mirror. -Patrick M.


it would be great to have a place to record body measurements, weight, body fat, etc and be reminded once a week(or as desire, to update them. If some could be captured automatically from connected devices that would be great too. A TOTAL picture of progress to be shown in a dashboard! -Greg C.
