Description
Digital Body Measuring Tape for Tracking Waist, Chest, Shoulders & Thighs.
Sometimes progress shows up in places the bathroom scales simply cannot see. You might be training regularly, getting stronger and changing shape while your bodyweight barely moves. That’s where a smart body measuring tape can become genuinely useful.
The Phoenix Fitness Smart Body Measuring Tape connects via Bluetooth to the Fitdays+ app, allowing measurements to be recorded and followed over time instead of being scribbled into your phone notes and forgotten about.
If you’re building a clearer picture of your progress, explore our Fitness Tracking & Body Measurement range. You can also pair circumference measurements with our Smart Body Composition Scales, giving you another way to follow changes without relying on bodyweight alone.
How does the Smart Body Measuring Tape help me track changes over time?
Instead of taking a measurement and having to remember where you wrote it down, the tape connects to the Fitdays+ app via Bluetooth so your measurements can become part of an ongoing record. That is where we think the “smart” part actually earns its keep.
A single waist or thigh measurement doesn’t tell you very much on its own. Take the same measurement consistently over several weeks, though, and you can start to see whether things are actually changing.
The tape itself has a Bright LED Digital Display, so you can still see your measurement immediately, while the locking design makes measuring yourself considerably easier than wrestling with a loose tape and trying to read tiny markings at the same time.
Can I use a digital body measuring tape to track fat loss or muscle gain?
It can be a really useful part of doing that. If you’re trying to lose body fat, measurements around areas such as your waist may change even during periods when your Bodyweight doesn’t move very much. The same applies if you’re Strength Training. If you’re gaining muscle while losing body fat, relying purely on the Bathroom Scales can sometimes hide the progress you’re making.
A digital body measuring tape gives you another measurement to follow alongside bodyweight, body composition estimates, progress photos and how you’re actually performing in your training. The important bit is consistency. Try to measure the same place, in the same way and under similar conditions each time. You’re looking for the trend over time, not worrying about a few millimetres from one measurement to the next.
Why Buds Fitness love this product?
I’ll admit it, a smart tape measure sounds slightly unnecessary when you first hear it. After all, we’ve been measuring waists with normal tape measures for a very long time. But the clever bit isn’t really the tape.
This Digital Measuring Tape removes the faff from tracking. One of the biggest problems with taking body measurements is consistency. You’re trying to hold the tape in the right place, keep it level, get the tension right, read the tiny number and then remember to record it somewhere. The locking pin helps when you’re measuring yourself. The measurement appears clearly on the LED Display. And with Fitdays+ connectivity, you have somewhere to actually follow what is happening over time rather than ending up with “Waist 92cm” buried in your Notes app from six months ago.
From a Mental Health perspective it’s also useful as at times, the number on the scale may not be going the way you wanted for various reasons but you might pick up a win on your measurements.
