HOW TO SET UP YOUR SCANNER

SET YOURSELF UP FOR SUCCESS!

PREGNANCY

It is not recommended to scan whilst pregnant or suspected pregnancy.

PACEMAKER

It is not recommended to scan if you have a pacemaker or similar device implanted.

MAXIMUM WEIGHT

Maximum weight is 240 kg or 528 lbs.

METAL IMPLANTS

The technology passes a signal which travels through the 5 compartments to provide a reading of the impedance & reactance of tissue. Depending on the size of the implant will depend whether the signal can travel through all compartments unimpeded. The Evolt 360 will provide a message if the impedance is interrupted and not able to supply a reading.

PROSTHETIC LIMBS

As the technology requires enough tissue for the impedance to flow through all 5 compartments (limbs and torso), people with prosthetic limbs will not be able to obtain a sufficient reading.

BAND AIDS

Please remove any band aids that are attached to your fingers, palms or under your feet if it is safe to do so.

ACTIVITY TRACKING devices

Please remove any activity tracking devices such as Apple Watch or FitBit to avoid any interference with the frequency.

MEASUREMENT ANALYSIS

How to grip handle electrodes
Ensure contact with all fingers including thumbs and palms as shown in the image.
Ensure palms have full contact with electrodes at all times.
Stretch out arms enough to ensure that arms are not touching the body.
Stand still throughout the measurement ensuring there is not movement of the head, arms or feet.

CORRECT USE OF THE EVOLT 360

1.

When the subject has hands or feet that are too small to cover all electrodes sufficiently for measurement, please pay attention to touch all electrodes fairly. How one touches electrodes will affect the reliability of the analyzed value.

2.

During measurement the subject should not be touched by another person or by conductive materials.

3.

If 8 electrodes are not perfectly touched during measurement, measuring is quit or the data is not reliable

USING YOUR EVOLT 360 SCANNER

MEASURING POSTURE

Step on the scale in bare feet. Stretch both arms and spread them 30° from the body.
Do not speak or move the body until the measurement is completed.
Do not bend or shake the arms until the measurement is completed.
The measurement will be stopped if all eight electrodes are not fairly touched.

EXPLAINING SCAN RESULTS

EVOLT 360 TECHNOLOGY

As with all forms of body composition, the technology of bioelectrical impedance (BIA) requires standardized conditions when scanning to provide proper repeatability of measurements. The technology reads impedance and reactance of tissue at a point in time which can differentiate Lean Body Mass from Body Fat Mass.

The human body is quite dynamic in response to training stimulus, nutrient partitioning and supplementation/medications so those things need to be taken into account with respect to scan readings. The technology is validated in science and used in medicine so generally, variabilities in scan results are mostly due to human factors, this is why we always ensure there are standardized conditions around testing.

The most important aspect of using BIA technology is to ensure the circumstances around comparison scans are controlled, so all scans need to be performed under the following conditions:

The same time of day for each scan
The same hydration level (ie. the user should have consumed some water well before scanning)
The same food consumption
The same medications
The same supplements
The same caffeine consumption (we recommend no caffeine prior to scanning)
The same phase of the menstrual cycle, ie. follicular phase or luteal phase (refer to section on the menstrual cycle)
The client must have full contact with the silver tactile points (particularly full contact with palms) and the client should have clean hands and feet. It is common for people to lose contact with their palms during the scan process which can lead to the impedance not reaching all 5 compartments.
The client should not have trained or be heated prior to scanning.

EXPLAINING SCAN RESULTS

KEY POINTS OF ASSESSING PROGRESS

You will see the key components on the scan to check are highlighted in yellow.

Whilst people always look at body fat percentage as a show of progression, the reality is that it is only a percentage of your total body weight and not always a reflection of how much body fat has changed. The best way to track body fat is to track Body Fat Mass in kilograms or pounds.

The largest margin of error can be seen by checking Total Body Water. Being a component of Lean Body Mass, this is where you can identify whether the scan result has been affected by a human factor that is influenced by something that has altered Total Body Water. This is why it is imperative to control the scanning conditions as much as possible.

This is also where it is most important to note anything that can have an effect on Total Body Water such as:

Inflammation from training load
Hormonal changes
Severe temperature changes
Caffeine
Medications prescribed ie blood pressure medication or non-prescribed ie marijuana, CBD
Supplements such as cell volumizing products ie creatine, beta alanine, pre workouts etc.
Dehydration (it is common for people to not want to drink water before a “weigh in”)
Sodium
Alcohol
Evolt 360 Body Composition Scanner Report

EXPLAINING SCAN RESULTS

ACCURACY QUESTIONS

Physiologically speaking there are a number of human variables that can attribute to a scan result not reflecting an expected result or change and this is why there is a significant emphasis on controlling scan conditions.

For initial scans, areas to check are:

Has the client consumed any caffeine?
Has the client recently trained or has a raised temperature?
Ensure the client has had full contact of the silver tactile points on the machine throughout the scan process (especially palms)
Has the client taken any cell volumizing supplements or medications that alter hydration?
Ensure the height is correct

If a female client, where are they in their menstrual cycle? If they don’t know, always scan the same time of day in 4 weeks or 8 weeks.

Some people will have an expectation of their Body Fat Percentage which might not reflect on the scan result. The BIA device can only provide a result based on the impedance and reactance of tissue, and therefore the result is reflecting the state of the body at the time of scanning. The first scan result is only a baseline and the emphasis should be on the follow up scan results, not the initial scan. Furthermore, where body fat is concerned, the total Body Fat Mass (kg or lbs) is where the emphasis should lie rather than Body Fat Percentage.

MENSTRUAL CYCLE & MENOPAUSE

From a hormonal perspective, there are significant fluid shifts within the menstrual cycle as you can see from the diagram depicting the controlling hormone changes. You can see where the hormones rise, this is where you will see significant fluid shifts. The first 5-7 days are the best days to scan, where the hormone levels are fairly stable. The levels of hormones estrogen and progesterone fluctuate throughout the cycle and can lead to water retention. Water retention is highest around the midpoint of the monthly cycle and the 1-2 weeks before a period.

It is important to note that this is a guide only and you will come across the odd client that typically holds fluid in different circumstances, but for the most part, use this is a general guide.

Similarly, women in peri, post or menopause can experience fluid shifts due to drops in estrogen and progesterone. The take home message is to scan at the same time of the day within 4 or 8 weeks from each other to try and keep standardized scanning conditions.

Body Scan Results

EXPLAINING SCAN RESULTS

TRAINING, INFLAMMATION & OTHER FACTORS

Significant training loads can produce inflammation and fluid retention. Sometimes you may experience a scan result where the results may not be reflecting your expectation.

It is not uncommon for some people to experience plateaus and sometimes increases during a fat loss phase. It is never a linear process and the human body is subject to a number of different processes to recover, replenish and normalise certain functions. In most cases, if the client is being compliant, they should re-scan again at another interval (under the same scanning conditions) to reassess. It is always important to encourage the client to stay on track and discuss the various factors that could potentially show a result that didn’t meet expectations.

From a nutrition perspective, reducing carbohydrate consumption will initially provide a substantial change as 1 gram of carbohydrate bonds with approximately 3 grams of water, so this is why there is often a decent change from the first to second scan result in a fat loss phase.

Carbohydrates are also required to replenish glycogen stores in the muscle (as well as the liver). Excess carbohydrates or a high carbohydrate meal can momentarily clause fluid shifts and alter a scan result, so keeping food choices similar in nature around scanning, is important.

Finally, remember that using the Evolt 360 scan gives you some important data about your client. It is a collection of data around your client’s individual circumstances. It gives you an opportunity to learn what variables effect your client’s body composition.

Managing client’s expectations around scan results is key to keeping them motivated. The scan is only one piece of information from the state of the body at the time of scanning. Other key indicators such as increased energy, increased strength, feeling and looking better in clothing, feeling confident etc. are all important factors.

TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE

CORRECT HANDLING TECHNIQUE

Ensure that your back is kept in a straight position at all times, keeping your feet, shoulder width apart, use your legs to lift the machine up as shown in the figures above. DO NOT round your back.

When the unit is folded, firmly grasp the base of the neck as shown in figure A with one hand and grasp the other side of the unit by grasping under the scale between to two feet as shown in figure B.

TRANSPORTATION & STORAGE

GENERAL HOUSE KEEPING

1.

The scanner takes about 30 seconds to boot up, and it is calibrating, so avoid putting any weight on the scale during boot up.

2.

Turn off the scanner daily when leaving the gym

3.

The scanner will scan offline, so if there is ever trouble signing into a profile for a scan, ensure the network says “100 (connected)”. You will not be able to log into a profile if the scanner is offline.

4.

Allow system to be on for 15-30 seconds before attempting a scan.

5.

If any issues are experienced, turn off the scanner for about 10 seconds and turn back on.

7 REASONS EVOLT MAKES SENSE FOR YOUR FACILITY

1.

A Starting Point. Because the number one reason members quit a gym is that they don’t use it enough, Evolt gets them motivated by providing a baseline measurement of the overall fitness. This motivates them to improve and provides an easy-to-understand measurement of their progress.

2.

Better Nutrition. By using the free Evolt app, your clients can easily monitor the macronutrient breakdown that is updated with each scan. It takes the guesswork out of a nutrition plan.

3.

Easy Reporting. Through Evolt Insights, our cloud-based reporting program, trainers have easy access to member profiles, allowing them to monitor their workouts and progress. It also facilitates automated Club Challenges.

4.

Recurring Revenue. Evolt 360 actually creates a third revenue stream after membership dues and personal training fees. Do the math: If you add just $20 per month to your base membership for one scan a month, each client adds up to an additional $240 a year — $4800 a year for getting as few as 20 clients on the machine.

5.

Unique Lead Generation. You can take your Evolt 360 out of the club to special events. Think health and wellness fairs, senior centers and recreation programs! The lead generation opportunities are limited only by your staff’s imagination.

6.

Training for Trainers. We don’t just send you a box and leave you on your own. Evolt provides a proven on-boarding program for all new clients to make sure everyone understands the process and the science. Your success is our success.

7.

Backed by Science. Evolt 360 is the exact opposite of a one-size-fits-all product. Its science accounts for the unique and personalized characteristics of every individual. Just like your club should!

8.

And one more thing: Scientific literature has written time and time again that there is no such thing as a direct measure of body composition — except in a post-mortem dissection of a cadaver. Scientific validation of BIA technology has proven the use of specific algorithms that consider age and gender to improve the accuracy of body composition measurement. The Evolt 360 takes that even further by incorporating five specific personalized variables – height, weight, gender, age and impedance – to provide the most accurate body composition measurement for any individual.

Get a quote now

Say goodbye to scales and measuring tapes. Give your clients the ability to see real-time results from their efforts. While increasing their confidence in your service leading to higher retention rates, increased referrals and word of mouth, not to mention creating an exciting and fun culture in your gym.
