This platform provides the owner and operators a broader knowledge base of the capabilities of the technology, science, user experience, marketing, and other aspects of the Evolt 360.
Please ensure all current and new staff complete this course before they operate the Evolt 360.
It is not recommended to scan whilst pregnant or suspected pregnancy.
It is not recommended to scan if you have a pacemaker or similar device implanted.
Maximum weight is 240 kg or 528 lbs.
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 on 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.
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.
Please remove any band-aids that are attached to your fingers, palms or under your feet if it is safe to do so.
Please remove any activity tracking devices such as Apple Watch or FitBit to avoid any interference with the frequency.
Using Your Evolt 360 Scanner
Correct position to measure
How to Touch Electrodes
- Make sure that the plate electrodes are clean. Use antiseptic wipes on all silver plate electrodes after each use to ensure cleanliness and hygiene
- Take off the socks or stockings then, stand on the plate electrodes.
- Remove sweat or foreign matters on the soles.
- Fairly place the bare feet on the plate electrodes. Make sure that the clothes are not between the soles and the plate electrodes.
- When ankle electrode is selected to measure body composition, pull down the socks as shown in the picture.
- Remember cleanliness - we strongly recommend every person use an antiseptic wipe to clean their hands and under their feet before using the Evolt 360 for hygienic reasons and to improve conductivity. We also recommend that the whole machine is cleaned regularly (every second day) with a microfibre cloth.

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.

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 food consumption
- The same supplements
- The same phase of the menstrual cycle, ie. follicular phase or luteal phase (refer to section on the menstrual cycle)
- The client should not have trained or be heated prior to scanning
- The same hydration level (ie. the user should have consumed some water well before scanning)
- The same medications
- The same caffeine consumption (we recommend no caffeine prior to scanning)
- 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.

UNLOCK THE MOST VALUABLE METRICS TO YOUR BUSINESS. DOWNLOAD THE USER GUIDE BELOW.
Evolt’s major differentiator is the Evolt Insights analytic platform. Business owners can view their user’s scans, access their progress charts, generate data analytics, run challenges and see which users are progressing or regressing at the click of a button. Keep track of the performance, engagement & retention of your members. Unlock the full potential of your Evolt 360 Body Scanner.
The #1 reason members join the gym is to change their body composition. In today’s competitive environment if gyms are not tracking this data their members are at risk of leaving.
With the amount of customer data being collected, it’s easy to become overwhelmed. The strength of the Evolt platform is in its ability to focus on the metrics that matter.
- Understanding member's physical health & well-being goals in relation to their BWI
- View aggregated data reports over a single location, specific region or entire brand
- Identify opportunities through the Retention Report to engage with members who aren’t achieving their personal goals to prevent them from getting demotivated and canceling their membership

Challenges
Challenges are the perfect way to engage your current members, upsell programs and attract new members to your club.
The Inbuilt Evolt Challenge Facilitator makes running Challenges a breeze. For more tips on running a challenge and measurement accuracy, see our blogs below or reach out at any time for additional training or materials.
Are you effectively measuring your member’s progress to ensure they are on track to reach their goals? If the answer is “no” you’re not alone. From a recent survey conducted, over 68% of gyms, health businesses, and personal trainers did not know how effective their member’s training was or what they needed to do to keep their members on track.
The Evolt 360 makes it easy to measure incremental changes in your client’s body composition, allowing you to tailor advice and even programs to suit their individual requirements. With over 40 data points collected from each and every scan, you are able to access a wealth of information at your fingertips. See at a glance client uptake, re-scan rate, and benchmark your performance against the industry standard.
View your individual client scan history and harness the power of the data to keep clients engaged in their wellness regime.
