The next Skinfold Assessment will be held on October 10th, 2010. Please read the following for more information and directions as to what will be expected.
There will separate assesments for both men and women.
Test: The procedures of this test require myself and my team to use calipers to analyze each individual's body fat percentage and how that impacts their overall health.
Please be aware that that testing may be invasive and some may find it somewhat uncomfortable. If you do not wish to participate, please let me know so we can take care of this matter.
Safety: All calipers will be cleaned with alcoholic wipes in between each test, and all necessary precautions will be made to ensure a safe testing environment.
The men and women will be tested on the chest, abdomen and thigh and the triceps, supraillium, and thigh respectivley. We will be testing the particpants based on ACSM Standards for a 3 site skinfold test.
Please wear shorts and short sleeves shirts. Men will have to remove their shirts for the testing.
Privacy: All tests will be done in a private room away from other participants. All test scores will also remain confidential.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please contact me at thibaula@kean.edu.
