PRE-OWNED FAT LOSS DEVICES
What is whole-body air displacement plethysmography?
Whole-body air displacement plethysmography (ADP) is a widely recognized and scientifically validated densitometric technique used to assess human body fat levels. ADP is based on the same principles as the gold-standard method of underwater weighing, but it is a densitometric method based on air displacement rather than water immersion. There are several advantages to air-displacement plethysmography over established reference methods, including a quick, comfortable, automated, non-invasive, and safe measurement
process and the ability to accommodate various subject types. (i.e. children, obese, elderly, and disabled) When body fat percentages are extreme, however, the accuracy of the machine tends to decline. Overweight and obese individuals tend to have a slightly understated percent body fat (around 1.68–2.94% based on the calculation method). Very lean individuals tend to have a much more significant overstatement of their percent body fat. (Around an average of 6.8% with up to a 13% overstatement of reported body fat) DXA reports 2% body fat, but ADP reports 15% body fat.
pre-owned body fat devices
We offer pre-owned, mint condition body fat devices for sale, including The ST, Gold Standard, and Bod Pod Express Machine. In the field of body fat testing, these units represent the gold standard in terms of accuracy, speed, and safety. These devices are a tracking and air displacement system that uses whole body densitometry to analyze body fat and mass. Our pre-owned body fat devices have been acquired by personal training facilities, universities, physical therapy clinics, professional athletic teams, doctors, and research facilities. We are able to ship pre-owned body fat devices throughout the United States and Canada.
Our pre-owned body fat devices are regularly serviced by technicians from the manufacturer to ensure that quality and standards do not degrade over time. All of our machines are plug-in ready.
