Now, if you want to plunk down the money and get a digital body composition analyzer, you sure can. They are very helpful in tracking your progress, so you can see results. And that’s a huge weight-loss motivator. Most have free apps and sync with whatever fitness-tracking program you already use.

But there’s no need. If you’re already semi-motivated—a regular runner, or a pretty reliable gym rat—a simple scale is all you really need. And you can get one for about twenty bucks.

The Best Scales & Body Analyzers

Just having that visual reminder of where you’re at, and where you’re going, is a great motivational factor. Knowing what you weigh every day, and how much you weighed yesterday, is a fantastic key to keep working at it.

So feel free to try to save some money on your bathroom scale. But if you’re hoping your $20 digital body composition analyzer is going to be a trusted, long-serving component of your fitness regimen, accurate for years, you may be sorely disappointed.

Our advice? Go with what you know. Get the one you trust. Get the one you like. And you’re bound to find it here.

Here are the 11 best scales and body composition analyzers for men.

 

Renpho Bluetooth Body Fat Smart Scale

Tanita HD351 Digital Scale

One of the premiere names in medical-grade scales, Tanita is known for accuracy, reliable performance, and unique features. Made of heavy-gauge steel, the sleek HD351 features a low profile and oversized platform. It has a high weight capacity of 440 pounds, and a 2-inch, 2-line display that shows the current and previous weight reading for up to five users.

Withings/Nokia Body Cardio Smart Scale

Sometimes, you get what you pay for. This Withings/Nokia body composition analyzer is pricey, but it’s one of the best you can buy. It’s wi-fi connected, so you can get accurate readings no matter where in the world you are standing. And unlike other digital scales, it works as well on carpet as it does on hard floors. Best of all, right now, it’s an astonishing $54 off!

Greater Goods Digital Scale

Yunmai Smart Scale

Compact and powerful with a 10-inch frame, the Yunmai is one of the more subtle body composition analyzers you can get. Within seconds, it takes ten essential health measurements and sends them instantly to your smartphone, making it easy to track weight loss and health progress. No wi-fi required.

Ozeri Rev Mechanical Scale

For a racy design with a retro feel, the Ozeri Rev is the right choice. We love the speedometer-inspired dial, which reads both lbs and kg. And the LCD readout makes reading it easy. Available in black, teal, or white, it makes a super-cool addition to any home gym or guy’s bathroom.

Arboleaf Smart Scale Body Analyzer

iDOO Ultra-wide Heavy-duty Marbled Scale

We like the iDOO because not only is the black-and-white marble finish a change of pace from the typical, it’s an oversized platform (13 by 12 inches) with a higher weight capacity (440 lbs.) than most. So it’s great for big & tall guys. It’s still glass, though, and features rounded, smooth corners.

Redover Bluetooth Body Fat Scale

Etekcity Digital Body Weight Bathroom Scale

Innotech Digital Bathroom Scale

Nothing fancy or tech-y here; just a simple, sleek, perfect scale. With a large, easy to read display and automatic calibration, it’s ready to go right out of the box. Constructed of 6mm black glass, the functional design will blend seamlessly into any decor. It offers precise readings within .02 pounds, with a weight capacity of 400 lbs.
