Q

Assumptions of the 2C model

A

Density of FM = 0.9 g/ml

Density of FFM = 1.1 g/ml

FM + FFM densities are the same for all ind.

Densities of various components of FFM are constant w/in ind

Ind being measured differs from a reference body in only amount of fat.

Q

Method for taking SKF

A
  1. Record subjects age, stretched height, weight + gender.
  2. Using measuring tape, mark skin fold sites on RIGHT side of body.
  3. Ensure muscles relaxed.
  4. Using thumb + forefinger, grasp tissue at marked site so that double layer of subcutaneous fat + skin is obtained.
  5. Hold calliper perpendicular to subjects body, measure thickness of centre of fold 1cm away from edge of thumb + forefinger.
  6. Release pressure of fingers from skin fold but don’t release fingers touch from subjects skin.
  7. Place calliper 1cm below marking
  8. Let calliper measure site for no more than 2 sec + record reading.
  9. Measure each site 1 time through + repeat once more for min of 10% variation.
