The Scan
Make sure you're hydrated before your scan; otherwise your body fat reading will be affected. It's recommended you drink 1 to 2 cups of water 2 or 3 hours before your scan. During your scan, you will step onto a special platform position in front of the scanner camera. You will hold your arms out in the shape of an "A," and loosely curl your hands into fists. Once ready, the platform slowly rotates the full 360 degree scan. This takes 30 to 35 seconds.
