[@VivoPhys]

Thanks

[@finkledo]

Thanks! Not a single person at my gym knew how to use this.

[@VivoPhys]

I'm glad it helped.

[@kadamseth3817]

Had one of these jawns at my la fitness and didn’t know how to use it thanks dawg🙏

[@VivoPhys]

You are welcome.

[@fenerbahceqwe3756]

LOL my dumbass couldn't weigh myself at the gym the other day because i didn't know what to do with it. Now I know, thanks.

[@VivoPhys]

Best of luck next time.

[@kush_shinobi9715]

Bro, Same here 😅

[@Millieshin-yj5mb]

Great scale! We have these scales in our pool bathrooms. Much more accurate than the electric ones.

Thank u this realy help me

[@VivoPhys]

You are welcome.

[@AbiaTV]

Can i do it like the bottom block could be on 155 instead of 150 and 200? and then move the upper block where it balances?

[@VivoPhys]

Theoretically this would work, but their are notches that make it easy to line up the weight at set increments to improve accuracy. You are better off using the set increments.

[@wetbread2777]

Thanks😊

[@VivoPhys]

You are welcome.

[@arturosoberano1854]

I dont have one,this seems interesting though

[@FPChris]

Shouldn’t it float in the middle at 0 on both beams?

[@VivoPhys]

Hi @FPChris. If you look closely sometimes the scale is unbalanced going up and sometimes down in this video prior to adding weight on the foot platform. I think I just didn't have the weights lined up with the 0 perfectly, but it might have been slightly out of calibration too. Sorry, I made this video a long time ago. So I am not sure what the issue was, but yes it should be balanced at 0 with nothing on the foot platform.

Congratulation on your "Physician Scale - Body Weight" inspirational thanks for sharing.🥁👏💌

[@straightuno1250]

Thanks

[@VivoPhys]

I hope it helped.

[@gixellia8455]

Thank you. HOWEVER, I have a question: the upper small black weight, where exactly do I read it? At the left side or at the right side that covers the scale?

[@VivoPhys]

Hi Gixellia. On this scale it is the left side where the weight has a small point.

[@jameskihoti2993]

What is the price of that scale

[@VivoPhys]

I do not know. It was here before I started working in my current position.

[@ChickenPermissionOG]

Is this a balance scale?

[@VivoPhys]

I've never thought about it before, but I guess it would be considered a type of balance.

[@mochamami439]

Headed to the gym, now I know what to do..😂😂

Enjoy your workout.

[@mochamami439]

@@VivoPhys Thank you! I did! 6 miles on the bike, and then had a yummy CAVA bowl for dinner. 😊💪🏽🙌🏽

[@mazhariqbal5106]

Why do use these vs electrical scale?

[@VivoPhys]

It's a relatively inexpensive method that can be calibrated without sending it out to the company.

[@siddysiddy5271]

Could you please do one in kg please I'm new subscribers.

[@VivoPhys]

Hi @siddysiddy5271. I wont be able to make this any time soon, but the only real difference is that you look at the lower black scale and make sure the weights slide into the notches that correspond to that scale.

[@sawmehl7550]

Mine is locked in all postions??????

[@sawmehl7550]

The height I mean

[@friedice6535]

I don't like this scale. Too complicated for me. It should be made more simple

[@VivoPhys]

Hi @friedice6535. Digital scales are simpler, but can be less accurate if they are not well calibrated.

[@修理固成-p2t]

Do you have exact the same model which can scale in kg(metric unit or SI unit)?

[@VivoPhys]

Hi 修理固成. This scale does both metric on bottom and imperial system on top of each level.

[@likhelakhanya8107]

Ur scale is far

[@undefined-ze6dc]

And then they invented electricity

[@VivoPhys]

Agreed, but most electric scales cannot be calibrated by the user and eventually lose calibration.
