Mastering Body Measurements for Prostate Cancer
Practical Tools To Monitor Health and Fitness During Treatments and Beyond
It is very valuable to learn how to assess your body composition (how much fat and muscle you have), and muscle function, so you can track your progress, and have information on how your health and fitness change over time. What gets tracked, gets measured; what gets measured, gets managed; what gets managed, gets improved. However, to track your results accurately, you will need to learn how to perform valid and standardized measurements.
What’s included?
This guide will explain everything you need to know in a very simple and easy way. You will learn how to properly weigh yourself, how to find out exactly how much of your body is fat vs muscle, and how to be as accurate as possible when tracking information about your body composition (your fat percentage, muscle mass, and bone mineral density). I compare different methods of body composition assessment from the very basic such as circumferences and skinfolds, to more advanced such as a DEXA, which one to choose, what their values mean, and how to standardize measurements.
Also included is a spreadsheet, with ready-made calculations and formulas so you can start tracking information right away!
