Biceps: subject in anatomical position, level of triceps skinfold, use the ruler to get a line and most anterior aspect, fold runs vertically along arm. Subscapular: arms relaxed by side, find subscapular landmark, 2cm inferior and lateral to the landmark. Illiac crest: subject stands arms crossed over chest, fold at iliocristale site, fold facing posterior to anterior. Surpraspinale: line between iliospinale and the anterior axilla (level with iliac crest, fold downward laterally to medially, roughly belly button. Abdominals: arms relaxed by side, 5cm lateral to the belly button, hold callipers same direction as line. Wrist: (ulnar styloid process, radial styloid process, metacarpals (i-v), phalanges (i-v)) Shoulder: acromioclavicular joint, medial boarder of scapula, lateral boarder of scapula, So a bit of information regarding the prac exam in week 12 and 13.
