Hey folks,

I have a digital bathroom scale I use to track my training progress. It’s not great as it can display two different weights if I get off and get back on it again. I was looking for something consistent and accurate. Any suggestions?

Make sure you're not applying different pressures to the top plate.
If you're not centered the same every time you step on the scale you're applying different pressures to the load cells.
You're going to get different results.
It's the same as looking down to read the scale and rocking forward to the balls of your feet.
It changes the pressures on the load cells.

It’s pretty consistent at giving me two different readings. I always get on the scale in my birthday suit before I jump in the shower to eliminate variables. I’m definitely not dancing on the scale to get a measurement. I just need a better scale.
