This study compared hydrostatic weighing (HW) at residual volume (RV), total lung capacity (TLC)-dry and TLC-wet in the determination of body density (00) and percent body fat (%BF). Considering the comfort of the submerged ...

The closed-circuit oxygen dilution technique was used to measure residual volume (RV) in 100 female Ss, age 10 to 56, while seated on land (RV dry) and while immersed to the neck (RV wet). There was a significant difference ...

This study was designed to determine if hydrostatic weighing (HW) at total lung capacity (TLC) yield the same results as HW at residual volume (RV). Forty-two boys (i = 10.4 y r ) from the La Crosse, WI, area were given a ...
