How Well do Skinfold Equations Predict Percent Body Fat in Elite Soccer Players
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 08/17/09
Reilly T et al. – The use of generic equations for estimating percent body fat from skinfold thicknesses can be criticised when applied to specific sports. The present aims were to compare existing methods of using skinfold data and to derive an equation for predicting body fat values in professional soccer players. Regression analysis resulted in an equation incorporating anterior thigh, abdominal, triceps and medial calf sites, accounting for 78.4% variance in DXA criterion values.
