@byjehill   I am not trying to split hairs, but Fitbit's "lean" mass is a little different from muscle mass.  I believe you are looking at the Lean vs Fat mass graph.  When your scale takes the measurements, it uses your weight and percent body fat to calculate your fat mass.  What's left is your lean mass -- this will be your muscle, organs. bone, etc.  I don't want you or other users to confuse the two.

Hi @byjehill and welcome to the forum!  The Aria 2 does not measure muscle mass. According to the specs, it measures BMI and lean mass.

@byjehill Welcome to our Fitbit Community! Regarding your inquiry, my friend @SunsetRunner is totally correct. The Aria 2 doesn't measure muscle mass.

 

In addition, I'd like to share the Aria 2 manual. So you can learn all its features and get the most out of it.

Yes... you are correct. Not a fan of this scale cause it gives you so little info for price. It is getting returned
