"Body fat balances show the amount of fat in your body to the last 0.1%"

I'm sorry, to the last one-tenth of one percent?

Not a freaking chance

"Body fat is measured barefoot. Measurements always have to be taken under identical conditions (e.g. no nutrition or liquid intake directly before weighing) and at the same hour each day. This is important because the amount of body fat naturally fluctuates, as does the body weight. This fluctuation means that results can differ at different times of the day".

Yes it's true that bodyfat levels can change throughout the day but that is NOT why these results fluctuate. These results fluctuate because hydration levels change throughout the day.

Nice try, though.

How about:

Physical exercise: Athletes often have lower fat values. This has to do ith the fact that they burn more energy.


See, now I always thought that athletes were fatter than the rest of us!

and here i thought it was because everyone knows athletes are just naturally skinny so they hardly have to eat anything at all.
