Abstract:
Body composition by body voluraetry (water displacement), height, body weight, 5 skinfolds thickness and circumference of 6 body parts were measured in 101 Chinese men. A stepwise regression analysis of these data gave the following regression equations.Body density = 1.11197 - 0.00228S1 - 0.00046S2 - 0.00039S3-Fat(%)= 0.91137S1 + 0.17871S2 + 0.15381S3 - 3.60146S1. S2 and S3 represent the skinfolds thickness of tricepital, subscapular, and suprailiac respectively.Lean body weight = Body weight. (1-Fat%)
