    This document provides instructions and values for predicting body fat percentage from conventional skinfold measurements using several established equations. It lists a 30-year-old male's height, weight, and skinfold measurements taken at various body sites. Using these values, the document then displays the individual's body fat percentage, fat mass, and fat-free mass as calculated by different equations from Durnin & Womersley, Jackson & Pollock, Jackson et al., and Petersen et al. It also lists his BMI, FFMI, and FMI.
