Body Composition

Body composition testing offered by the Community Health and Performance Assessment Program within the Department of Human Performance and Health at USC Upstate. This test utilizes air displacement plethysmography to determine your body fat percent, fat mass, and fat-free mass. Clients will receive a pre-participation health screening, pre-testing instructions, and an interpretation packet detailing the results of their selected testing. This service is overseen by PhD exercise physiologists and student mentees using research grade baoratory equipment in the Exercise and Sport Science Lab and can be used to establish health and performance goals and track progress. The testing takes ~15 minutes. This testing is in no way intended to be a medical diagnosis.
