InBody 270 Body Composition Scanning at Urban Athlete

Measure what matters not just the number on the scale

At Urban Athlete, we offer InBody 270 body composition scanning as part of our membership experience because health is more than weight alone. Understanding how your body is composed; muscle, fat, water, and metabolic indicators, gives you real insight into your progress and informs smarter decisions in training and lifestyle.

The InBody 270 is a professional-grade body composition analyzer that provides precise, objective data, helping us guide your fitness journey with intention. The scan shows the results of the work and effort used both in and out of the gym, assisting in tracking strength, fat loss, or overall health adaptations over time.

What the InBody 270 Measures

The InBody 270 uses advanced bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to deliver a detailed breakdown of your body composition without guesswork, estimations, or invasive testing. You simply stand on the device and hold the hand electrodes. Within minutes you get a wealth of actionable data.

Key metrics provided include:

  • Body Composition Analysis: Lean body mass vs. body fat mass.

  • Muscle-Fat Analysis: Skeletal Muscle Mass (SMM) and Percent Body Fat (PBF).

  • Total Body Water: Hydration and fluid balance.

  • Segmental Lean Analysis: Muscle and fat breakdown in each arm, leg, and trunk.

  • Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): Calories burned at rest.

  • Body Composition History: Track changes over time to see real progress.

This type of comprehensive data shows what’s really happening in your body, not just what the scale says.

Why InBody Data Matters

Tracking body composition gives meaningful insight that supports better, smarter progress especially when paired with coaching:

1. See Beyond the Scale

Your weight alone doesn’t tell the full story. You may be gaining muscle, losing fat, improving hydration, or increasing metabolic health. None of which show up meaningfully on a traditional scale.

2. Guide Training and Nutrition

Data like lean mass and BMR helps coaches tailor strength training and nutrition suggestions to your body’s needs, helping you set realistic goals and make evidence-based adjustments.

3. Monitor Trends & Adjust Plans

Regular scanning (we recommend every 6–8 weeks) gives you trends not single data points so adjustments to your training, nutrition, or lifestyle are informed and intentional.

4. Identify Imbalances & Opportunity Areas

Segmental analysis helps identify left/right imbalances in muscle mass and guides corrective training strategies especially important for longevity, symmetry, and movement quality.

How We Use InBody at Urban Athlete

InBody scans are part of membership benefits and an integral tool in our coaching process. Every scan is followed by a 15–20 minute interpretation session with a coach, where we:

  • Review your metrics together.

  • Explain what the results mean for your goals.

  • Adjust your strength training and lifestyle plan as neede.

This makes your data meaningful, not just numbers on paper; turning insights into action.

Non-members are also welcome to drop in for scans and interpretation for a fee. This can be a great first step if you’re curious about personalized fitness data before joining.

How to Prepare for Your InBody Scan

For the most consistent and accurate results, we recommend:

  • Scan at the same time of day when possible

  • Hydrate well in the days before your scan

  • Avoid food, caffeine, or exercise 2–3 hours prior

  • Wear light, consistent clothing

  • Empty your bladder before the test

These simple steps reduce variability so that changes over time reflect true progress in your body, not just daily fluctuations.

A Better Picture of Your Health, A Different Type of Selfie

At Urban Athlete, the InBody 270 isn’t a novelty, it’s a decision-making tool that helps guide your training, nutrition strategies, and lifestyle choices with precision and care. It adds clarity to progress, reveals areas you might miss otherwise, and helps in guiding users in making smarter decisions about how they train, move, and live.

Whether you’re focused on fat loss, muscle growth, strength training, or longevity, InBody scanning gives you data that matters, and we support you in understanding it every step of the way.
