- Measurement of body composition provides a better estimate of fitness and health compared to the Body Mass Index because this measurement does not only counting for body weight and height.
- Understanding the composition of fat and fat-free mass in the body can help to determine whether someone needs to form more muscle or lose fat.
- Measurement of body composition can also reveal certain basic health problems and provide insight for diet and exercise determination.
Aim
- Helping educational institutions, academics, and researchers to carry out research related to body composition.
