How do you determine what is the best weight for you?

Honestly, I use a 15 lb ball. Most people will tell you to use the full 16 for carrying weight on the backend, but because I don't play full time or many leagues at once, I tend to find myself really tired going in to game 3 if I use 16 instead of 15 lbs. I can adjust my ball speed to make up for the pound loss in "hitting power". Plus, I've noticed over the years that the differential numbers tend to be higher in 15 vs 16, which gives you more hook.

Your best bet is to go to the bowling alley Pro shop and whoever the ball is for, bring them along and they can determine the weight based on his or her stature, etc.

Hit the top right button for "Settings" Scroll down to "User information" The first setting should be weight, so hit the middle right button Use the bottom right button to scroll down to your new weight. :)

Can select either kilograms or pounds after turning on scale. Answers for pound weights are in decimal portions (i.e. .25 for 4 oz and .5 for 8 oz). Have not used the kilogram selection so don't know how it would display amounts less than 1 kilo.

If you pick the sizes from the chart you can answer that one yourself. It tells you

I use 5lbs, 8lbs and 10lbs depending on the exercise. Of course as you get stronger increase the weight.

There are two programmable user settings. If you use one of these, it remembers your weight from you last session. If your weight has changed, you simply enter the new weight before continuing through the menu. Not that cumbersome.

Hi-there's a small switch on the bottom of the scale where you can select lbs.

I wish you could rely on what they say. At least its so wrong that you know to look elsewhere for the info. What is it? 4 or 5 lbs?

Turn the scale over. There is a pounds - kilograms switch on the bottom just under where the weight display is located. Just slide the switch to poundss

It will know your general weight and bodyfat percent and can distinguish the user based on that. My sister and are generally the same weight (give or take) but my bodyfat is less than hers so we both can use the scale with no problems. I just step on, it measures me, and then tells me the user it assumes is using it. It's never been wrong yet, but you can change the user if it guessed wrong.

There is a button on the bottom that toggles between, pounds, kilos, and stones. If you difficulty in switching between the weights call the manufacturer on their New Jersey local number.

Try to find the manual online or call the company - I know it mentioned recommended top weights in the manual (but mine is filed at my office and I don't have it with me where I am). Keep in mine the weight of any computer, etc, equipment that will also be on top, and how much effort you want to put forth each time you crank it up and down. My top only weighed about 20 pounds, and I wouldn't want it any more difficult to crank (but then again I am a 30 old woman, without arms of steel, so all of that is to be considered!). I want to say the recommended total weight was still in the "hundreds" range.

If you just want your weight just tap on it and step on. To get the BMI and other info you tap then select the user then step on.

I would say weigh yourself first. Then pick up your cat and get back on the scale. And subtract your weight from the weight of you and your cat and that will let you know how much your cat weighs.

You can switch between kilos and pounds, if I correctly understood your question, yes you can choose between the two different metrics to count your weight.

I would go by weight. You can always have them taken up but can't have them let out.
