InBody | Dial H40
The InBody Dial H40 Smart Body Composition Scale reads seven named values from one barefoot test, passing a small painless current through you and measuring how strongly the body resists it. Four are primary: Weight, Skeletal Muscle Mass, which is the muscle attached to your bones, Body Fat percentage and BMI. The other three read Visceral Fat Level, Body Balance Evaluation and Leg Muscle Analysis. Visceral fat is the deep fat carried in the abdomen. Those last two report one region at a time, where the primary four cover the whole body. Of the three InBody home scales, only the H40 returns Leg Muscle Analysis.
Underneath that is an 8-point electrode system, with four contacts at the hands and four at the feet. The method is Direct Segmental Multi-Frequency Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis, shortened to DSM-BIA, which means the scale reads your arms, legs and trunk as separate paths. Contacts at both ends of the body are what let it read those regions separately. Triple frequency means the current alternates at three different speeds, and each speed reaches tissue the others do not. Readings move to the InBody App over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth with no step on your part. The app handles multi-user recognition, so a second person in the house gets their own history. We stock the InBody Dial H40 in Beige, Black and Green.
How the H40 reads a body
A body composition scale does not weigh fat. It reads how the body resists a small electrical current and works the composition figures out from that resistance. Where the contacts sit and how many frequencies are used decide how finely it can do that, and both are worth understanding before you compare the H40 to anything else.
The feature list
Eight lines covering the InBody Dial H40: the electrode arrangement, the frequency count, each of the seven values it returns and the way those values reach your phone.
Closer look
A single skeletal muscle mass figure tells you how much muscle you carry and says nothing about where you carry it. Leg Muscle Analysis and Body Balance Evaluation are the two outputs on the Dial H40 that answer the second question. Both exist only because the measurement is segmental, which means taken in parts, one region at a time. If you are training one side back to level with the other, those two lines are the ones you will open the app for. The same goes if you spend your season on a bike and want to watch your legs month to month. The other five values will be there as well, and they move on a much longer timescale.
The two Dials divide on depth against breadth, and the price order will mislead you if you let it. The H40 returns seven values, and Leg Muscle Analysis is one that neither the InBody Dial H30 nor the InBody H20N reports. The H30 returns nine, adding Waist-Hip Ratio, InBody Score, Cellular Integrity, Body Fat Mass and Soft Lean Mass, which measures lean tissue once its bone mineral comes out. The H30 also recognizes up to 20 users, and the H40 handles multi-user recognition through the app. Pick the H40 if a value for your legs and a balance reading are what you actually plan to look at. Pick the H30 if you want the longer list of figures and a house full of people on one scale. Whichever colour you take, the H40 carries a one year product warranty, and its specification marks it FSA and HSA eligible. Whether your own plan will reimburse it is a matter for your plan administrator's substantiation rules, so settle that with them before you get to checkout.
Compare
All three read at eight points and all three send their results to the InBody App. What changes across them is the list of values that comes back, and that list does not follow the order of the prices.
