Muscle quality score

Tanita’s unique muscle quality score indicates the condition (quality) of the muscles, which depends on factors such as age and level of exertion. 

Are you as strong as you seem? Some people have huge muscles but cannot lift much. Not only quantity counts when it comes to your muscles, the quality is also very important. Even within your own body, the quality of your muscles can differ. If, for example, your left arm has better quality muscles than the right one, an imbalance in your body is lurking. This in turn can lead to injuries. From the age of 18 it is possible to assess the quality of your muscles. This is assessed on the basis of the ratio of muscle mass to height.
