LESSON SUMMARY

Bio-Electrical Impedance Analysis

• The BIA test is used to assess a performer’s body composition.
• Body Composition – The ratio of fat to fat-free mass that a person’s weight comprises of.
• All types of living tissue have a slightly different cellular make up. When electrical currents are passed through them, we can measure the differing levels of resistance (impedance) being experienced.
• By analysing the level of impedance felt by a current that is passed around the body, we can arrive at a performer’s body composition.
• Electrical probes are attached to a performer’s hands or feet between which a weak electric current is passed.
• The resistance and duration the current experiences, combined with the performers age, gender, height and weight, can be used to accurately calculate their body composition.
