Body average density measurement. The bod pod is a commercially available device for use in children and adults. Typical means for a person with whole body density 1066 kgl. Calculating body fat percentage isnt always completely accurate and there are many methods to try. Objects with a density greater than 10 will sink in water while less dense objects float. It requires the subject to be minimally clothed in spandex shorts or bathing suit with a spandex hair covering to minimize air trapping around the body. Between 1 and 25 your score is a sign of osteopenia a condition in which bone density is below normal and may lead to osteoporosis.
But you can plug your body density into the following equation to get a general idea. Measuring body density there are several ways of determining the bodys density density mass volume either by directly measuring body weight and volume or by using calculations based on other measurements. Our subjects density is 1059 kgl. Total body density typical body density 1059 1066 0007 kgl. Adp measures body density through measurement of body mass and volume. These are the world health organization guidelines for the body mass index for women.
Well talk about the healthy range for men and women and the limitations. Your bone density is considered normal. Body density measures are used in the estimation of percent body fat. Density of fat free mass fat free mass consists of bone fluid gas muscle connective tissue and nonfatty organ matter. The density of a human body is the measurement of the amount of mass present in each unit of the bodys volume. Most modern body composition laboratories today use the value of 11 kilograms per litre for the density of the fat free mass a theoretical tissue composed of 72 water density 0993 21 protein density 1340 and 7 mineral density 3000 by weight.
Therefore head neck density 111 0007 1103 kgl. The density of most objects can be studied in relation to water which has a density of 10 gram per cubic centimeter.
