Body Composition

Body Composition Assessment (ISAK)

I am a level 3 accredited anthropometrist so can offer a body composition assessment based on skinfolds and girth measurements. We can discuss what is the best assessment for you to aid your performance, either for health or sport.

ISAK Courses

I run ISAK courses for level 1 and 2 accreditation across Scotland.

ISAK stands for the “International Society for the Advancement of Kinanthropometry” and is an organisation of individuals whose scientific and professional endeavor is related to Kinanthropometry, the quantitative interface between human structure and function. ISAK was founded at a Meeting on the 20th of July 1986, in Glasgow.

Kinanthropometry is a scientific specialisation dealing with the measurement of people and has application to movement and those factors which influence movement, including:

  • Components of body build
  • Body measurements
  • Proportions
  • Composition
  • Shape and maturation
  • Motor abilities and cardiorespiratory capacities
  • Physical activity including recreational activity as well as highly specialised sports performance
