INDIVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT 2
Personal Physical Assessment and Ergonomics Worksheet
DUE DATE: at beginning of lecture Monday April 13th
1) Submit your Questionnaire and completed data sheets #4 to #8 (Submit your data. It is
OK if some are blank because you were not measured at that station) (20 marks)
2) Summary of % Body Fat Estimations: Complete and submit the Summary of % Body Fat
Estimations table (next page of this document). (20 marks)
3) Anthropometric and Performance Data Profile: Complete and submit your profile (3rd
page of this document. No interpretation necessary. (20 marks)
4) Ergonomic Worksheet: In the lab in week 13 you will be provided with an ergonomic
worksheet that will be completed and finished during the lab session. This should be handed
in as the 4th part of your Individual Assignment 2. (40 marks)

Equations for the Anthropometric Prediction of % Body Fat
SLOAN: This is one of the earliest well accepted set of equations. The equations predict body density and then the Siri equation (1962) is
used to transform this density to a percentage of body fat. These equations were developed on samples of university students from the U.S.A.
FEMALES
17-25 years of age
Density = 1.0764 - 0.00081(Iliac Crest Skinfold) - 0.00088(Triceps Skinfold)
SEE = 0.0082 gm/ml
MALES
18-26 years of age
Density = 1.1043 - 0.001327(Front Thigh Skinfold) - 0.001310(Subscapular Skinfold)
SEE = 0.0082 gm/ml
Siri equation (1962): %fat = ((4.95/Density) - 4.5) x 100
YUHASZ: These equations derived on Canadian university males and females use the sum of six skinfold measurements (S6SF). Where
S6SF = Sum of Triceps, Subscapular, Supraspinale, Abdominal, Front Thigh and Medial Calf skinfolds. These sex specific equations predict
percentage body fat without the intermediary of body density.
MALES: % fat = 0.1051(S6SF) + 2.585
FEMALES: % fat = 0.1548(S6SF) + 3.580
PETERSON: These equations were derived from male and female subject enrolled in the Fels Longitudinal Study between 1929 and the
present, typically soon after their birth. Most of the Fels participants are white, resided in southwestern Ohio at the time of their enrolment. The
subjects used in the production of these equations raged from 18 to 55 years of age. Where height is in cm, and sum4 is the sum of the
triceps, subscapular, supraspinale, and thigh skinfold thicknesses and BMI is Weight / Height2
MALES:
%fat = 20.94878 + 0.1166age - 0.11666height + 0.42696sum4 - 0.00159 sum42
FEMALES:
%fat = 22.18945 + 0.06368age + 0.60404BMI - 0.14520 height + 0.30919sum4 - 0.00099562 sum42

Anthropometric and Performance Data Profile
Record the median or maximum values from your data in the boxes provided. Circle the percentile
closest to your value on the sex appropriate chart to produce a profile from these various measures.
Some of you may not have been measured for all components. Just leave these blank.
