The aim of the research was to determine an accuracy of measurement based on intra-trial concurrent and convergent validity of body composition (BC). Measurements were obtained via bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) in comparison with the hydrodensitometry (HD) method in elite female soccer players (n= 14). BC was measured using three methods: bioelectrical impedance methods BIA 2000M and In Body 3.0, and HD. The fat mass (FM) measured by HD was 16.96±3.86 percent, whereas it was 21.26±5.77 percent when …
