Over the years many
population specific and generalized equations as used in almost all
commercially available
Bioelectrical Impedance have been tested on sports
and athletic population only to find such equations cannot accurately
estimate the Fat Free Mass of this group.
Individuals who are physically active, highly sporty and athletes have
greater bone mineral content, bone density and skeletal
muscle mass. The
density of the Fat Free body in athletic men and women is greater than
that of their sedentary counterpart.
It is important to have an accurate initial assessment of body composition
so that the appropriate goals in weight
management and exercise training
programs can be set.
Further changes in body composition due to weight loss or training need to
continuously be monitored so that weight goals
can be modified at each
stage accordingly.
The use of Maltron Body Composition Analyser will allow you to evaluate
the effectiveness of the weight loss or training.
Maltron Body Composition Analysers are the first BIA systems to apply
specific equations in different categories. |
