Objective This study compared bioimpedance analysis (BIA) in the assessment of body composition with dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) in 18‐to 88‐year‐old adults. Design and Methods Body composition of 882 adults was estimated by eight‐polar BIA and DXA. In addition, estimates of lean mass, fat mass, and percentage of fat were investigated across a range of age and leisure time physical activity (LTPA) groups. Results Compared to DXA, larger lean masses (mean difference 2.9 and 1.6 kg) and smaller fat masses (3.1 and …
