Evaluation of the BOD POD for estimating percent body fat in collegiate track and field female athletes: a comparison of four methods.

This investigation examined the accuracy of the BOD POD on a group of Division I collegiate track and field female athletes (N = 30). Hydrostatic weighing (HW) was used as the gold standard method. Body density (Db) values obtained from the BOD POD (Db BP) were compared with those determined by HW (Db HW).
