Body fat content is very important to overall health. Top of page BIBLIOGRAPHY Andre. "Glycogen," The World Book Encyclopedia. 1998 vol. G. pp. 237 "Body Fat Percentage."

She had to take time off work to come and take the measurements of the ten, seventh grade students. She also got the caliper that I used for the skin fold measurements. |

| Cotton. Bioelectrical Impedance Bioelectrical impedance is based on the principle that the essential conductivity of an electrical impulse is greater through lean tissue than through fatty tissue. Hydrostatic Weighing Hydrostatic weighing is the body fat percentage calculated from body density. It is a water-weighing test considered "gold standard" body composition assessment. Circumference Measures essential Circumference measures are easily used to assess body composition. You must use the exact anatomical landmarks. The cloth or metric measurement tape is pulled tight enough to keep the position with out causing indentation in the skin. Skin fold The skin fold measurement is based upon the essential sum of the three specific sites. The test should not be taken after exercise because the transfer of fluid to the skin is a result of over estimations. Of the many equations estimating body composition; two developed by Jackson and Pollock (1985) have the smallest margin of error for general population. |
