However I like the sound of the DEXA machine and also feel like skin folds are quite accurate despite being intrusive.]]> 2022-03-04 21:35:05 UTC https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2078660084 Hip to waist is best imo. Anyone can use it and only need two easy to get measurements. All you need is a calculator. As for validity maybe not so much, but if you measure correctly it can be reliable. https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2083234767 2022-03-08 04:48:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2083234767 Corban https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2087879376 I like the use of skinfolds in a slightly more professional setting, For general practitioner use I would look at girth measurements as its easily followed and understood and can be carried out by the general public at home with the help from a family member or partner.]]> 2022-03-10 08:31:16 UTC https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2087879376 I would normally try to avoid body comp testing as i feel it can give misleading impressions about current level of fitness/health and progression of weight loss/fitness through a training program. I would however use it for athletes if weight/fat percentage was an important factor for their sport. https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2092589843 2022-03-13 19:25:35 UTC https://padlet.com/bestie_15/ry6m9yleykx5/wish/2092589843
