How to read "Lean vs Fat" graph?

[Bradders474]

I have just started using the aria 2 and I'm having difficulty reading the lean vs fat graph. Can anyone explain to me in simple terms what it's showing me? Many thanks in advance.

@Bradders474 Welcome to our Fitbit Community!

Regarding your question, the dark blue line is weight -- coming from the scale or manually entered. The white line is the calculated lean mass. The area in blue is the calculated fat mass. The area below the white line is the calculated lean mass.

Please don't hesitate to get back if more questions arise!

Hello that is clear to me now, but why there are no numbers ( labels) displayed on the graph ?

it would be easier to read a labeled graph with body fat% and muscle %. 

Can it be done?

@joannenader  The different versions of the app sometimes display differently.  On the iOS app version of the Lean vs Fat graph, there are two arrow pointing apart.  Tap on the arrows and rotate to landscape.  A light touch and hold over any entry shows a box with the date, lean mass, fat mass, and total weight.

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Hi sometimes for the same weight the lean or fat % will go up or down. How does it determine the lean abs fat breakdown?  And it only works when using the Aria 2 scale (which I have)?
