We tested the validity and reliability of the BioSpace InBody 320, Omron and Bod-eComm body composition devices in men and women (n 254; 21–80 years) and boys and girls (n 117; 10–17 years). We analysed percentage body fat (% BF) and compared the results with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) in adults and compared the results of the InBody with underwater weighing (UW) in children. All body composition devices were correlated (r 0· 54–0· 97; P≤ 0· 010) to DEXA except the Bod-eComm in women aged 71–80 years (r 0 …
