Prediction equation for lower limbs lean soft tissue in circumpubertal boys using anthropometry and biological maturation.
Lean soft tissue (LST), a surrogate of skeletal muscle mass, is largely limited to appendicular body regions. Simple and accurate methods to estimate lower limbs LST are often used in attempts to partition out the influence of body size on performance outputs. The aim of the current study was to dev...
