What is a 'Bod Pod'?
Yes, the 'Bod Pod' does sort of look like a giant egg or something that may have come from outerspace. Actually, it's a very unique tool used to measure body composition. The Bod Pod is primarily found in research facilities and used by many pro and collegiate level sports teams.
The Bod Pod was created using the same principle as the 'gold standard' hydrostatic (underwater weighing) testing, without all of the challenges. The Bod Pod uses air instead of water to measure body volume. It is considered a gold standard measurement, along with underwater weighing and DEXA.
This method is fast, accurate, comfortable and effective for people of all ages and sizes. The complete test, start to finish takes less than five minutes.
