Body composition changes in bodybuilders: a method comparison
Article Abstract:
A validation study for determining the body fat and fat-free mass (FFM) changes in bodybuilders who used exercise and androgenic-anabolic steroids with the 4C model being considered as the standard of determining body fat and FFM in comparison with other models is presented. Study showed that all models gave acceptable group mean value apart from the body mass index (BMI).
