Sum of weight of (skeletal Muscle, fat mass, body water) much greater than body weight

[gpp22]

Hi, Just started using Samsung Watch 5 Pro and started taking body composition measurements today morning before eating anything. Noticed that the sum of weights of skeletal Muscle, fat mass, body water is about 16.5 kgs more than my weight as per the weighing scale. Wonder why this is happening.

Hi, I request you to please restart the watch once and check again, if the issue still persist please perform reset on the watch by using the below link.

Really? Reset phone? What about what the next comment said.? Can you actually look into this before suggesting reset

Because both fat and muscle contain water, part of their total weight includes water weight. This will cause the overall total to be higher than 100%.

For instance, the following stats come from a 172.8-pound man:

Fat: 20.6 percent

Water: 60.5 percent

Muscle: 46.8 percent

Total percentage: 127.9
