Body composition (Skin folds or BIA)*

This assessment involves measuring the thickness of seven skinfolds at specific locations on the body using precise callipers. The purpose of the assessment is to measure the level of subcutaneous adipose tissue (fat beneath the skin). We can also measure body composition using laboratory grade bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) scales. The report from this assessment includes the following data: Body fat (kg and %) Fat free mass (kg and %) Sum of seven skinfolds (mm) Estimated basal metabolic rate (BMR)
