What does your InBody result sheet mean?
At CrossFit Lake Wylie, we are committed to helping you make the right kind of progress. As a member, you receive a free InBody scan each quarter, giving you valuable insights into your health and body composition.
These scans are an excellent tool to help you assess if you’re on track to achieve your goals.
Tips for tracking progress:
- Regularly compare scans to monitor changes.
- Focus on improvements in muscle mass and reductions in body fat.
- Ensure hydration levels are consistent for accurate comparisons.
For general information on your scan here’s a quick guide to help you understand your results:
- Body Composition Analysis
- Total Body Water (TBW): Indicates hydration level.
- Dry Lean Mass: Mass of your muscle tissues.
- Body Fat Mass: Amount of fat in your body.
- Muscle-Fat Analysis
- Weight: Total body weight.
- Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM): Weight of muscles attached to bones.
- Body Fat Mass: Again, the amount of fat in your body.
- Obesity Analysis
- Body Mass Index (BMI): Weight relative to height.
- Percent Body Fat (PBF): Percentage of body fat in relation to total weight.
- Ideal Body Fat Percentages:
For Men:- Average Ideal Range: 10-20%
- CrossFit Fitness Standard: 6-13%
For Women:
- Average Ideal Range: 18-28%
- CrossFit Fitness Standard: 12-18%
Maintaining body fat percentages within these ranges can contribute to optimal health, athletic performance, and overall well-being.
- Ideal Body Fat Percentages:
- Segmental Lean Analysis
- Right Arm, Left Arm, Trunk, Right Leg, Left Leg: Amount of lean mass in each body part.
- Body Fat-Lean Body Mass Control
- Body Fat Mass:Â Amount of fat to lose or gain for optimal health.
- Lean Body Mass: Amount of muscle to gain or lose for balance.
- Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
- BMR: Your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR) represents the number of calories your body needs at rest to maintain basic physiological functions, such as breathing, circulation, and cell production. However, BMR is not the amount of calories you should consume daily, especially with CrossFit. It is a foundational figure that does not account for physical activity, digestion, or other daily activities.
If you’re ready to address the foundation of the fitness pyramid—nutrition—and need support and accountability, we’re here to help!

Understanding Segmental Lean Analysis on Your InBody Scan
Ideal Percentages:
- Upper Limbs (Arms): Each arm should ideally be over 100%, indicating a healthy distribution of muscle mass.
- Lower Limbs (Legs): Each leg should also be over 100% to reflect balanced muscle mass.
- Trunk (Torso): Should be over 100%, demonstrating sufficient muscle mass in the core region.
Why Percentages Should Exceed 100%:
- Balanced Muscle Distribution: Ensures all body parts have adequate muscle mass relative to their ideal amounts, which is crucial for overall physical balance and posture.
- Optimal Strength and Performance: Higher percentages indicate better muscle development, leading to improved strength, endurance, and performance in both daily activities and athletic endeavors.
- Reduced Injury Risk: Balanced and well-developed muscles lower the chance of injuries due to muscle imbalances. When muscles are evenly distributed, the body can move more efficiently and safely, reducing strain on joints and other tissues.
- Functional Health: Supports efficient and effective movement in daily activities and athletic performance. Well-developed muscles contribute to better metabolic health, enhanced mobility, and the ability to perform physical tasks with ease.
- Long-term Health Benefits: Maintaining higher muscle mass percentages can help in preventing age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia), enhancing metabolic rate, and supporting healthy body composition.
Regular monitoring through InBody scans helps ensure you maintain or achieve these ideal percentages, leading to better overall health and fitness outcomes. By keeping your segmental lean analysis percentages above 100%, you’re investing in a stronger, more balanced, and healthier body.

These are actual results from coach Alie. In the picture on the left she was just doing CrossFit. At the time she had no nutrition guidance and wasn’t getting the support she needed. The picture on the right is the result of working with a nutrition coach to dial in nutrition, reduce stress, improve sleep, and more. Our comprehensive nutrition coaching program goes beyond food choices, encompassing six essential pillars: nutrition, sleep optimization, exercise routines, fostering a strong support system, and adapting lifestyle habits for sustained wellness.
