There are thousands of fitness apps and things out there. I was going to steer clear of fitness products. But looking at this, I remembered what FitTrack describes another function performed by the scales –

a very low, safe electrical signal is sent from four metal electrodes through your feet. The electrical signal passes quickly through water that is present in hydrated muscle tissue but meets resistance when it hits fat tissue. This resistance is measured and input into scientifically validated FitTrack equations to calculate body composition measurements.

A nutritionist I saw, used a similar method, which did provide some interesting data. Although as you know to have it be useful to develop useful change you need access to it yourself.

So this feature caught my attention. This might be the missing piece of information – learning your body mass much more accurately.

I love data and information to help guide my decisions. This is just the product I’m looking for.

The waterfall is beautiful all year round.

The photos were taken in January 2016. There are lots of different types of folige to photograph if you tire of the waterfall. The bush is home to Eucalyptus, mountain ash, and blackwood trees. If you’re lucky you might see some Australian animals in the wild.

Wren fill many a bush.

Fishing at the waterfall/creek

Your line might catch eels, blackfish and trout. Be careful not to snag a platypus. (The best times to see Platypus is in the morning or evening try further downstream from the waterfall. They like depth to hide. )
