TENITA
TENITA is the health and fitness technology taking the leisure industry by storm. If you’re not a part of it yet, here’s why you’re missing out.
A medically approved personal profile analyser, TENITA is at the cutting-edge of cloud software - enabling an in-depth report into an individual’s body composition that can be tracked and monitored. In no time at all, you can access a comprehensive breakdown of weight into body fat mass, fat-free mass (e.g. muscle), bone mass and total body water.
The science behind the technology
TENITA works by sending electrical frequencies around your body, which provide specific readings based on the resistance met when passing through different areas of the body. The frequencies will easily pass through water, but will show higher impedance readings when met with, say, fat tissue. Various calculations are then run to come up with a precise measurement of body composition.
This breakdown can easily be viewed through an online dashboard. TENITA software provides a thorough itemised guide to your overall health level, adjusted around existing age and gender demographical data.
Each section can be easily summarised through a traffic light system. If an area shows up in the green zone then there is little to worry about, but as expected, amber is a warning and red is a sign that you need to start paying attention to that particular area of your health. Further click-throughs provide a more detailed analysis into each section, alongside explanations into why maintaining each area measured is so vital.
Onwards and upwards
Perhaps one of the TENITA's best features is that it can be used on a regular basis to track your changing fitness levels. Keeping a copy of your previous results through online cloud storage, you can adjust your goals accordingly and make a note of the time taken to achieve these. All this data can easily be accessed at home, on the go or at our Leisure Centres.
At Impulse Leisure, our Personal Trainers use TENITA frequently as a tool to provide a greater understanding of the needs of individual clients. Through it we can pinpoint the most beneficial direction in which to move forward, and come up with more advantageous long-term health management plans.
Our staff will run through the equipment with every person before use, and demonstrate how to use the dashboard. For more information on TENITA at Impulse Leisure, visit impulseleisure.co.uk/fitness/my-results.
