Body measurement pod. Skinfolds the pitfalls of body fat measurement part 6. Each bod pod comes with all the hardware and software required to perform an accurate body composition test including pc cart integrated digital scale for body mass measurement calibration etc. In order to have the best possible results follow these simple instructions. The bod pod is extremely simple to use and does not require a license to operate. Using these data body fat and lean muscle mass can then be calculated. During a measurement the bod pod produces.
The scale is recalibrated daily. Using the same whole body measurement principle as underwater weighing the bod pod measures a subjects mass and volume from which their whole body density is determined. The range of error for this test is 1 to 27. The simple 10 minute test consists of measuring the subjects mass weight using a very accurate electronic scale and volume which is determined by sitting inside the bod pod chamber. The bod pod works on a similar principle as underwater weighing except it measures air displacement. The bod pod which uses air displacement technology is considered to be the gold standard of body composition measurement.
The pitfalls of body fat measurement part 3. The bod pod is a computerized egg shaped chamber. The bod pod gold standard body composition tracking system uses patented air displacement plethysmography for determining percent fat and fat free mass in adults and children. This relationship allows for the derivation of an unknown volume by directly measuring pressure. Body mass are calculated. Several studies have noted that the bod pods accuracy is similar to that of underwater weighing12 measurement with the bod pod takes seconds.
A method for determining the lean body mass. The bod pod differs from underwater weighing in that the bod pod uses air instead of water to measure body volume based on the physical relationship between pressure and volume. Body density can then be determined based on proprietary algorithms. It is as accurate as hydrostatic underwater weighing but quicker and easier to perform. The body pod a sculpting weight loss and pain relieving system. The system then measures volume inside the bod pod during two 50 second increments of air measurement.
