Why are the body fat percentage ranges for men and women so dif- ferent?

Women naturally carry a higher percentage of fat than men, because the make-up of the body is different being geared towards pregnancy, breastfeed- ing etc.

Why should I avoid using the Taylor Body Analyzer Scale while pregnant?

During pregnancy a woman’s body composition changes considerably in order to support the developing child. Under these circumstances, body fat percentage readings could be inaccurate and misleading.

Why is the Taylor Body Analyzer Scale unsuitable for athletes and children?

The body compositions of both athletes and children require different mathe- matic algorithms for the body fat calculation.
