About The BOD POD


The BOD POD is the safest, most accurate, and most subject-friendly of all methods used to assess body composition.

With the BOD POD, you'll experience none of the risks and discomfort associated with underwater submersion, x-rays, electrical current, and pinching. During testing, you just sit inside the BOD POD for less than 3 minutes. When your test is complete, you will receive a comprehensive report, complete with graphs, which includes:

  • Non-fat Mass
  • Body Fat
  • Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
  • Total Energy Expenditure (TEE)
  • Your Optimal Caloric Intake per Day

 

 

 

 

You can use this information to:

  • Get a baseline measurement of current body composition
  • Make informed decisions on diet and exercise programs
  • Monitor progress of your fitness program

 

 

 

Since its introduction in 1995, the BOD POD has steadily been gaining favor of body composition researchers and testers. This is mainly attributed to the non-invasive test-procedure and less chance for human error than other testing methods.

The unique egg-shape of the BOD POD is designed to accommodate a wide variety of human shapes and sizes. The BOD POD is used routinely by NFL teams, sumo wrestlers, and people weighing up to 500 lbs. Because it's so simple to use, the BOD POD is ideal for assessing the body composition of children, the elderly, hospital patients, and those with special needs.

The BOD POD body composition assessment is extremely simple, completely dry, and only takes about 10 minutes from start to finish. You'll meet our technician on the BOD POD bus and answer a few questions, then change privately into your testing attire, be weighed and then sit inside the BOD POD for a brief three-minute test. Results are available immediately after testing.
