Bf 350 body composition analyzer

The anthropometric measures included weight (Tanita BF 350 Body Composition Analyzer), height (Seca 217 Stadiometer), and waist (WC) and hip circumferences (HP) (ergonomic measuring tape). Body mass index (BMI) was calculated as weight (kg)/height (m²). BMI was categorized as underweight, normal, overweight, and obese (respectively, BMI: 0–18.5, 18.6–24.9, 25.0–29.9, and 30.0+). The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) was obtained by dividing the WC (cm) by HP (cm) circumference. WHR above 0.90 for males and above 0.85 for females was categorized as a substantially increased risk of metabolic complications [29 ].

The anthropometric evaluation included weight (Tanita BF 350 Body Composition Analyzer), height (Seca 217 Stadiometer), waist (WC), and hip circumferences (HP) (Ergonomic Measuring Tape). Body mass index (BMI) was obtained as weight (kg)/height (m2) and classified as underweight, normal, overweight, and obese (respectively, BMI: [0–18.5], [18.6–24.9], [25.0–29.9], and [30.0+]) (World Health Organization [WHO], 2011 ). The waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) was calculated by dividing the WC (cm) by HP (cm) circumference (World Health Organization [WHO], 2011 ). WHR above 0.90 for males and above 0.85 for females was classified as a substantially increased risk of metabolic complications (World Health Organization [WHO], 2011 ).
