Body Check Ball gives detailed info on body fat

If you’re extremely committed to being as healthy as you possibly can be, merely weighing yourself is never going to be enough. It just tells you the overall weight and although it might be slightly heavy, you may have less fat to lose than you think you do. After all, muscle does weigh a bit more than fat. To get a more accurate reading, you normally want to check out how much actual body fat you have. Of course those type things are something you’d only think to find at the gym. However, this Body Check Ball checks that and more, and it is stored in the comfort of your home.
It’s just a small palm-sized silver ball, so it won’t be one more fitness item that you’re stuck finding storage for. It reads body fat, bone density and muscle percentages. It then posts this info in big numbers on the LCD screen. These numbers won’t vary quite as often as your weight, so it’ll give you a better idea of your overall health. It claims to be accurate and comes from Japan. It runs on 4 AAA batteries and also has clock and alarm functions. You can purchase it through the Japan Trend Shop for $39.

Hypochondriac symptoms kept under control Says: May 18, 2009 at 3:19 am
[...] Published by Maria Mihale, on May 18 2009, in the categories: Gadgets According to Wikipedia, “hypochondriasis (or hypochondria, sometimes referred to as health phobia) refers to an excessive preoccupation or worry about having a serious illness. Often, hypochondria persists even after a physician has evaluated a person and reassured them that their concerns about symptoms do not have an underlying medical basis or, if there is a medical illness, the concerns are far in excess in appropriate for the level of disease”. Even if it might not seem alarming, you should know that we’re talking about a phobia that is able to turn people into frightening creatures that know nothing but to worry about their lives, about their health and to complain about their bad shape. And if you’re also tempted to exaggerate when it comes to your health, then you should know that it is possible for you to keep your weight under control with the help of the Body Check Ball, which is designed to give you the information you need concerning your shape. Because it is very important for you to know more than just the overall weight. The Body Check Ball is a small device, not bigger than the palm of your hand, and is able to read data like the body fat, the bone density and the muscle percentages. It shouldn’t come as a surprise for you the fact that there won’t be impressive variations as far as these numbers are concerned, except maybe for the weight. Equipped with a backlit LCD screen and storing up to 10 user profiles, the Body Check Ball comes also with clock and alarm functions. It measures 74 x 80 x 78 millimeters and weighs 120 grams, running on 4 AAA batteries that aren’t included in the package. You can buy it from Japan Trend Shop for $39 and it will heal the hypochondriac symptoms that you might have. (Source: Coolest-Gadgets) [...]
