Fast, Accurate, and Safe.
 The
BOD POD is a complete turnkey system for measuring and tracking
body fat and lean mass using patented air displacement technology.
Developed with grant funding from the National Institutes of Health,
the BOD POD technology is based on the same whole-body measurement
principle as hydrostatic weighing (the “dunk tank”).
Because of its high level of accuracy, ease-of-use, and fast test
time, the BOD POD has quickly become the method of choice for
measuring body composition.
The BOD POD S/T offers:
- Proven accuracy using whole-body density measurement.
- Fast test time - about 5 minutes.
- Ability to accommodate all types of populations (including
children, the elderly, and the disabled).
- Excellent repeatability. Safe for repeated testing and is
non-invasive.
- Ease of use for both subject and operator. No special technician
license required.
The BOD POD's roomy interior accommodates a wide variety of human
shapes and sizes. That's why it's used routinely to measure the
body composition of professional and collegiate football and basketball
players. It's also ideally suited for wheelchair athletes, those
with special abilities, the elderly, and children. And, because
the BOD POD is non-invasive, it is completely safe for regular and
repeated testing. |
