bodycomp - Percent Body Fat Values Using Anthropometric Prediction
Equations
Skinfold measurements is one of the most popular and
practical methods for estimating percent body fat. Body
composition is a term that describes the relative proportions
of fat, bone, and muscle mass in the human body. Following the
collection of skinfold measurements, regression analysis (a
statistical procedure used to predict a dependent variable
based on one or more independent or predictor variables) is
used to estimate total percent body fat in humans.
