ABSTRACT
(Full Article)
Body composition was assessed in a group of 344 free-living elderly between
60 and 89 years by means of anthropometry. The height, weight and body mass indexes of the elderly were
reduced with advancing age in both the males and females.
Skinfold thickness measurements also declined with age. Overall,
the female elderly had a greater tricep skinfold thickness but smaller
mid-arm circumferences, mid-arm muscle circumference and mid-arm muscle
area compared to the male.
