Purpose
The Checkup Page is provided as a means for recording physical measurements and vital statistics for a specific date.
Data recorded on the Checkup Page is used throughout the system to adjust workouts, measure progress and provide feedback. It is recommended that users perform at least quarterly checkups and in some cases (such as competing in a Fitness Challenge) weekly checkups.
Features
The Checkup Page records body measurements in inches or centimeters as well as blood pressure. From these measurements, the system will determine body mass index (BMI) and estimate body fat.
