GET STARTED & STAY ON TRACK...BODY FAT EVALUATION LOCATION: Fitness Branch (361-0268) Excessive body fat has been demonstrated to be associated with such health-related problems as coronary artery disease, hyper-tension, adult-onset diabetes, obstructive pulmonary disease and osteoarthritis.

Considering the profoundness of the health problems associated with too much or too little body fat, it is no surprise that the assessment of body composition has become a widespread and meaningful evaluation used by personal trainers. The Y offers you the opportunity to incorporate body fat evaluations into your fitness training.
