Note. The symbol ~ represents the relationship between the variables being the left side of the table (dependent variable) and right side of the table (independent variable). COR: Correlation; INT: Intercept; B: Beta; SEE: standard error of estimate; FM: fat mass; Log BS: logarithm bicipital skinfold;Log TS: logarithm tricipital skinfold; ΣAS: sum of the arm (bicipital and tricipital) skinfolds; CAR: circumference of arm relaxed;CAT: circumference of arm tensed; %BF: percent body fat; TM: total mass; BMC: bone mineral content; CalfS: calf skinfold; ΣLS: Sum of the leg (thigh and calf) skinfolds; TC: thigh circumference; CC: calf circumference; TS: thigh skinfold; LM: lean mass. ** Denotes significant correlation of p < .01.
