ABSTRACT:
A device for hydrostatic weighing of humans in existing swimming pools having a cradle for supporting a human body under water, a scale suspending the cradle for measuring the percent body fat of a human, a beam suspending the scale over the pool and a support frame for suspending the beam over the water. The frame includes a hollow base leg, a hollow upright post at the end of the base leg, and an upright post at the poolside end of the base leg so that the beam may be adequately supported. The weight of the human in the cradle is counterbalanced by filling the hollow base leg and hollow upright post with water by means of a hose and valve assembly located at the front of the base leg.
