Abstract: The purpose of this paper is by comparing the anthropometric and bioelectric-impedance-metric methods to estimate body com position of 18-year-old adolescents from Plovdiv (Bulgaria). In both genders the received average values of the quantity of fat mass by the two methods are practically identical and this fact shows that bio-impedance method can easily be adopted in anthropological practice as newer and easier to implement.
