Abstract:
Anthropometric evaluations of the upper limb have become valuable in the assessment of nutritional status of fat and protein. The standards for TSF (triceps skinfold thickness), T + S (sum of triceps and subscapular skinfold thicknesses), F(upper arm fat area), AMC (upper arm muscle circumference) and M(upper arm muscle area) which can be used on male adults tentatively are presented by survey in 1532 healthy males aged from 18 to 34 years.
