In order to product the equation for estimation body fat using the circumference and skinfold methods, twenty healthy female T.K.D. player university subjects were participated in this experiments. The results obtained in this study are summarized as followed.
1. Body density and %fat determined by underwater weighting method was 1.0493± 0.0089 and 16.4 ±3.7 respectively.
2. Body circumferences which presented the hightest correlation with the underwater weighting was abodominal (r=0.728, P<0.001) and hip (r=0.573, P<0.001) CIRCUMFERENCE.
3. Skinfold which presented the hightest correlation with the underwater weighting was abdominal (r=0.027, P<0.01), subscapular (r=0.547, P<0.01) and Pectoralis major (r=0.547, P<0.01) CIRCUMFERENCE.
