There are 3 major ways to assess body composition. The first is taking BMI, which compares height to body weight. It's not the most accurate way to assess physical health because some individuals weigh more because of more lean body mass, which is better than carrying extra weight from fat. The other method(s) determine actual fat percentage and provide risks for cardiovascular disease, Diabetes, and and other health related issues. This includes weight scales that use inductance and mechanical means of attaining body fat percentage. Lastly, taking body measurements such as hip to waist rations help determine ones level of risk for cardiovascular disease. Having a larger waist and abdomen indicates higher risk. In general, regardless size, lower amounts of body fat, especially in the mid sections, can indicate less risk for cardiorespiratory and metabolic disorders
The body composition is a series of tests used to compare the proportion of fat mass to lean mass. Fat mass is defined is the essential fats plus the stored fats.
