Research with police officers (POs) suggests an association between body composition, physical performance and health. The aim of the study was to investigate the associations between body composition and measures of physical fitness, and their use to predict estimated physical fitness score (EPFS). The sample included 163 male POs (age= 31.61±4.79 years, height= 172.97±6.09 cm, body mass= 77.53±11.66 kg). Eight body composition variables: body mass index (BMI), body fat mass index (BFMI), percent of body …
