2. Bioelectrical impedance analysis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectrical_impedance...

   The equation (the squared value of height divided by impedance measurements of the right half of the body) showed a correlation coefficient of 0.92 with total body water. This equation, Hoffer proved, is known as the impedance index used in BIA. [16] In 1983, Nyober validated the use of whole body electrical impedance to assess body composition ...

3. Body composition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_composition

   A wide variety of body composition measurement methods exist. The gold standard measurement technique for the 4-compartment model consists of a weight measurement, body density measurement using hydrostatic weighing or air displacement plethysmography, total body water calculation using isotope dilution analysis, and mineral content measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).

4. Metabolic age - Wikipedia

   Other researchers went on to find that other biological rates varied to the same, or a similar, coefficient. S. Brody developed a physiological age scale in 1945. In 1961 SCS Taylor used Brody's scale as a basis for a metabolic age scale along with taking 0.27 as a standard for the calculation.

5. Body fat percentage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_fat_percentage

   The body fat percentage is a measure of fitness level, since it is the only body measurement which directly calculates a person's relative body composition without regard to height or weight. The widely used body mass index (BMI) provides a measure that allows the comparison of the adiposity of individuals of different heights and weights.

6. Talk:Body fat percentage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Body_fat_percentage

   The widely used body mass index (BMI) provides a measure that allows for the comparison of individuals of different heights in terms of their weight. Due to differences in body composition, the BMI is not necessarily an accurate indicator of body fat; for example, individuals with greater muscle mass will have higher BMIs.
