hey, I need some extra credit for my Exercise Physiology class here it is was wondering if you all could help

EXTRA CREDIT OPPORTUNITY
Find personal statistics of professional athletes. Turn in to me or my box by the 24th.
Needs to include the source where you got it.
The only statistics needed are of body composition- including BMI, waist to hip ratio, and percent fat, vertical jump, and running speeds on different distances.


Thanks

Gee not askin for much here........................It would help if you provided the way to get the measures you are asking for. I personally do not have a skin cal or access to a hydro static tank. Nor can I get a VO2 max to calculate % body fat in a tank.

I guess what I am saying is give us the protocol (how) and I would guess a few here on the board would be willing to help out, heck we could even make it a contest. You may want to include the age of the subjects being that the body fat calcs change at a certain age.

later, B
