SELECTING THE BICEPS MEASURING SITE

2)Using a 12" ruler or the scale provided on the Arm Band, measure the length between the armpit and the inside of the elbow.

3)To mark the Measurement Point, measure halfway between the armpit and the elbow at the "belly" of the biceps muscle. (More technically stated: measure along the exterior line of the biceps halfway between the antecubital fossa and the acromion).

To mark this measurement site, place a small line on the medial side of the spot with a yellow highlighter or pen.

4)Place the Light Wand on the Measurement Site with one hand. Place your other hand behind the triceps, using your thumb and middle finger to hold the black foam disk around the arm to block out external light.

NOTE: It is suggested that the person being measured press the ENTER key with the hand not being measured.

5)Body Fat Estimation is described on pages 6 - 10.
