Abstract
Kinanthropometry as an emerging scientific specialization was viewed in terms of body composition using a unisex reference human or phantom to estimate fat,bone, muscle and residual masses. When this tactic was applied to data obtain-ed on male and female Montreal Olympic runners, gymnasts, swimmers, rowers anduniversity students, the sum of the fractionated masses accounted for all but 0.01-2.59 of the obtained body mass. The tactic was viewed in the context of kinanthropometry and the need for scientific advance in the area of in vivohuman body composition assessment. Verf.-Referat
