Body Composition Analysis Sample Clauses
The Body Composition Analysis clause defines the procedures and standards for measuring and evaluating an individual's physical makeup, typically focusing on the proportions of fat, muscle, bone, and other components. In practice, this clause may specify the use of particular methods or equipment, such as bioelectrical impedance analysis or skinfold calipers, and outline the frequency and conditions under which assessments are conducted. Its core function is to ensure consistent, accurate, and objective tracking of body composition, which is essential for monitoring health, fitness progress, or compliance with program requirements.
Body Composition Analysis. Body composition analysis is the measurement of a person’s lean tissue (bone, muscle, etc.) and fat tissue. Body fat standards as set forth in Chart A are age and gender based adjusted to allow for the physiological differences of sex and the aging process. At the time the PFT is conducted, a body composition analysis will be conducted using a method chosen by the physiologist. The results of the analysis will only be used for consultation with the member and will not be a phase of the PFT.
Body Composition Analysis. Body composition analysis shall be a component of the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) conducted by the Exercise Physiologist designated by the City and the Union. The maximum body fat allowable is set forth in Appendix C of this Article. Employees not meeting the body composition standards will have their maximum allowable weight determined and established by the Exercise Physiologist, and shall be placed in the Body Composition Program set forth in Appendix D of this Article. Employees placed in the Body Composition Program shall not be eligible for incentive pay. Employees who meet the body composition standards during the PFT will have their maximum allowable weight determined and established by the Exercise Physiologist. Thereafter, the employee must weigh in each ninety (90) days. The weigh-in shall be conducted using Fire Division scales. The results of the weigh-in shall be placed in the employee's medical file. Employees who exceed their maximum allowable weight shall be placed in the Body Composition Program, and will be ineligible for incentive pay.
