Body composition is the amount of fat, bone, and muscle in your body. Having a good body composition is an important part of staying healthy, as having too much fat can increase your risk of illness. If you're interested in finding out your body composition, ask your doctor or a fitness...
Interestingly, research suggests that body fat composition differs between adult sexes, too. You also tend to lose muscle mass and gain fat as you enter your later years. But at this point, BMI interpretations for adults over 19 years of age do not adjust for sex or age. ...
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of age on the relationship between fat-free mass (FFM) and fat mass (FM), and fat-free mass index (FFMI) and fat mass index (FMI) by applying body composition chart analysis on pre- and postadolescent Japanese subjects. SUBJECTS AND METHOD: A sample of...
Assessment of body composition by using a new chart method The body mass index (BMI, weight/height2), is commonly used as a simple and valid way of assessing body composition. However, the significance o... Komei,Hattori,Nobunao,... - 《American Journal of Human Biology》 被引量: 107...
Body Composition Assessments Medical experts agree that weight alone is a poor gauge of a person's health. It's the composition of that weight that matters most. But the body mass index can be a poor indicator of body composition because it only uses two variables (height and weight) to ...
Nonetheless, we recommend future studies to use several body composition techniques to increase accuracy of tissue mass assessment. Secondly, because we staggered the sub-study to start 5 months into the main study and due to a proportion of BIA measurements being unsuccessful, we only obtained ...
and 50 - 56% for women. These are optimal figures for BCM in the lean body mass. In view of the easy measuring methods for the assessment of the body composition, only phase sensitive BIA can be regarded to determine the BCM, and the maintenance of the BCM should be the main goal in...
Minor modifications were made to the chart, which was then used to assess location specific and overall body condition scores. Assessors scored cows in the eight body locations and rescored the cows in a different order to assign an overall score. The chart produced consistent scores over a wi...
