Name No. _____ Date______

Age Sex Height in cm Weight lbs kg.

Body Mass Index

Height = ______m Height2 = ______m2 Weight = ______kg

Waist-to-Hip Ratio: (measure to nearest centimeter)

waist cm hip cm Ratio (W/H) ______

SKINFOLDS: (measure to nearest millimeter. Measure all sites once and then repeat each site. Average the measurements for each site. If any measurements differ by more than 5 mm from the average, re- measure until all values are within 5 mm of the average (re-figure the average each time you re-measure).

Segmental BIA: %fat ______%

UNDERWATER WEIGHING:

Water Temp Density of H2O @ water temp .

Underwater Weight of Subject kg

Air Displacement Plethysmography (Bod Pod)

% fat = ______%

Spirometer Temp BTPS Correction Factor (from instructions)

Vital Capacity: Uncorrected ml (value from the spirometer)

Vital Capacity: Corrected ______ml (Uncorrected VC X Correction Factor)

Residual Volume ml. (24% of Corrected VC for males; 28% for females) Summary Table for Body Composition

Select an Ideal % fat for yourself. Your Ideal % fat = %.

Fill in the appropriate values in the cells below from your Excel Spreadsheet. Fill in BMI and W:H ration in the blanks in the first column. When computing body composition variables, round to the following significant decimal places: %fat, fat weight, fat-free weight, ideal fat weight, body weight, ideal body weight, BMI, W/H ratio to 1 decimal place; and Density to 5 decimal places. Fill in the BMI and W/H Ratio values in the left column. The classifications for BMI and % fat are from Table 1 in the lab instructions. The classification for Waist-to-Hip ratio are in Table 2 in the lab instructions.
