True Strength - Skinfold Measurements - minilecture

Huidplooimetingen - minicollege Eigen Kracht (Dutch title)

Measuring bodyfat percentage can be a tricky thing to do correctly. Sportnutritionist Floris Wardenaar shows how to procede if you want to measure somebody's bodyfat percentage. At several points of the body the skinfolds are measured with a skinfold caliper and added to a sum that is compared to a skinfold table. To measure correctly you need a lot of experience. It is advised that the same person is taking the measurements in time to get a correct estimate.

This video is part of the True Strength (Eigen Kracht) campaign of the Dopingautoriteit. A campaign that warns gym users and bodybuilders for the health risks of doping use and offers healthy and effective alternatives (training, recovery, nutrition, nutritional supplements, mental techniques).
