Y Machine Determines Editor Is Abnormal

By JOE ZELNIK COURT HOUSE - If you've got three seconds and 20 bucks, you can find out how much of your body « is fat, lean, and water. Remembering the song "If You've Got the Money. Honey. I've Got the Time," I took advantage of a free offer from Burdette Tomlin Hospital last week to have _ my body analyzed. (Hospital Community Relations Director Joann Oxley knows me well enough to realize I take anything that's free.) The body composition analyzer — a patient education tool — is small enough to be carried around by a physical therapist and cost $16,000. It has replaced a more much more inconvenient method of determining body fat: immersion in a tank of water to measure displacement CAROL FRANKENFIELD of Court House, the head of Cape Physical Therapy Services, had the privilege of learning about my body. She attached two electrodes to my bare right foot, a second pair to my right hand, and touched a " button. Three seconds later a computer printout began spitting out its opinion of me. For people with too much fat and not enough lean, the computer presumably - says: "Yuk. yuk. shame, shame." For me. it said. "Congratulations'' and "keep up the good work." The truth is. 1 have "exceptionally low body fat" for a person of my age. height and weight. Or, as Frankenfield put it. "Your body fat is way below normal." YOU WANT specifics? The normal range of fat weight for my age and size is 26 to 33 pounds I have 16.7 The normal percent of body fat is 16 to 20. Mine is 10. You want to talk lean? A desirable lean-to-fat ratio for one my age and size is "•i 4.4. Mine was 8.8. and this

is a case where the higher the better. Finally, the computer reported that 67.4 percent of my body is water. 50.4 liters if that means anything to you (it doesn't to met The main thing is. fat tissues don't hold as much water as lean, so high water is good Frankenfield pointed out that females have more fat. especially in certain places, a factl had noticed on my own. THE COMPUTER concluded that I might want to increase my body fat. which was especially welcome advice since it came two days before the end of Lent, during which I had given up, or tried to give up. desserts and sweets. It also recommended an exercise program if I wanted to increase my "lean body mass." And it told me just how many calories I would use for everything from aerobics to skiing. I was amazed to see that typing on an electric typewriter uses 20 calories in 10 minutes, half as much as food shopping and a third as much as walking. So here I am. knocking off 120 calories an hour.

eight hours a day. and get ting paid for it. Frankenfield also is director of Rehabilitative Services at Burdette Tomlin and her Cape Physical Therapy Services. like Burdette. is a subsidiary of Cape Health System Inc. Those are complicated corporate machinations which probablyhavc to do with who gets' what money. SPEAKING OF money, you can probably get that $20 fee down to $15 by having Frankenfield bring her machine to your group. A group, I would think, could be anything from a place of employment with a number of workers, or a club or organization I can think of a number of interesting possibilities. For example, we at this newspaper will challenge any competing news media to a body composition contest. No one would dare accept. of course, because we're well known for being the leanest and meanest. Speaking of mean, fellow named Bill Sturm 'he's in politics, I think) had his own comment about my body fat compositidh "I don't know about Zelnik's body." Sturm said, "hut he's 50 percent fat from the neck up."
