BMI
The Body Mass Indicator (BMI) is an internationally used index to show and measure your body composition by determining the balance upon your weight and height. A desirable Body Mass value is less than 25. Values above 30 may indicate potential health risks. At Trim & Tone we can determine your Body Fat percentage referring to the amount of body fat mass as part of the total body weight described as a percentage. Knowing your BMI as well as your body fat percentage will assist you in a healthy, successful weight loss. Our staff can offer you reliable and accurate information which can help measure your progress in meeting your goals.

The Truth about Losing Weight.
Losing weight does not technically mean that you are losing excess body fat. You could actually be losing the muscle density your body needs to be able to function properly, which also prevent health risks and enable you to look your best.
