Gerrard-Longworth, Simon; Preece, Stephen J.; Clarke-Cornwell, Alexandra M.; Goulermas, Yannis – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
Previous activity classification studies have typically been performed on normal weight individuals. Therefore, it is unclear whether a generic classification algorithm could be developed that would perform consistently across individuals who fall within different BMI categories. Acceleration data were collected from the hip and ankle joints of 50…

Mason, Jalyn; Morris, Christopher; Long, Douglas E.; Sanden, Madison N.; Flack, Kyle – Measurement in Physical Education and Exercise Science, 2020
Accurate body composition assessment, which includes fat mass (adipose tissue mass, FM), fat-free mass (FFM), and percent fat mass (%FM) is needed to evaluate health and treatment efficacy. The current study compared body composition estimates obtained from the Norland Elite® DXA, BodPod®, and iDXA® before and after a 12-week exercise intervention…
