Accu-Measure Fitness 3000 Personal Body Fat Tester Review
My first reaction was “This plastic thingy-a-jigamus will accurately measure my body fat?” In a nutshell, the answer is YES. In fact, at work we have a health and fitness coach. She has a two-thousand dollar Tanita bio-electric impedance scale. The difference between her scale and this plastic tool is amazing. The deviation is within 2%. Just practice using it and you will be just fine. When I first used it the average difference between three readings is 2 to 4 mm. Once I got used to it, my readings were consistenly on the money, and I was able to accurately get the same reading even the following day.
Next to a pistol and a rifle (I’m a staunch Second Amendment and US Constitution supporter), I would say this is a must have in every household – especially if you are a bodybuilder, or just want to track your weight (or I should say fat) loss.

Okay. I’ve been using this thing for over a month now. Just wanted to let you know that I have been consistently losing fat, and that the readings between this tool and the $2000 electric scale is still within 2% deviation. The key is consistency. As long as your readings are consistent, you can be rest assured that you will know whether your body is losing fat, muscle, or both. Again, it’s a great tool to have.

Update April 3, 2009
Hello again! It’s been over a year. I decided to buy another one because the old one is losing the “click” when I measure. What do you expect? It’s plastic, and plastic – just like with any other solid material – will deteriorate in time due to friction. Anyway, I am still giving the accu-measure a 5 star. For the price ($6.95 w/ free shipping as of this writing) you cannot go wrong. In retrospect, I probably should have bought more than 2 while they are still in sale.
