Hydrostatic Weighing:
Available the first Saturday of each month for a nominal charge, Hydrostatic Weighing is a great way to determine your body composition. Estimating weight on a standard scale does not always give an accurate measurement of body health. Since a high percentage of body fat can significantly affect health, hydrostatic weighing can be used to measure not in pounds but in body density. Hydrostatic weighing, also called underwater weighing, involves being weighed underwater. It is not a particularly complex form of weighing, but it does require one to be completely submerged in water during a portion of the test.
Sign up at the front desk. Come equipped to get wet.
