Bodystat

Sakkie Meeuwsen, founder and MD of Bodystat, was originally a chartered accountant. But his love was always health and fitness, and when a friend introduced him to the technology of “body composition”, Mr Meeuwsen resigned from a company he was running in the South Africa to launch Bodystat. “Body composition is the analysis of total body weight into the salient composition of body fat, muscle mass, and body water,” he explains.
