maintain Air Force fitness standards .

00:59.107 --> 01:01.329
Airman first class Shane Mitchell shows

01:01.329 --> 01:03.384
us how the bod pod helps airman meet

01:03.384 --> 01:06.770
their fitness goals in less than five

01:06.770 --> 01:08.826
minutes . The bod pod can figure out

01:08.826 --> 01:10.881
your body composition , it tells you

01:10.881 --> 01:13.103
how much body fat percentage you have ,

01:13.103 --> 01:15.640
how much body muscle you have body

01:15.640 --> 01:18.750
density , whether or not it's lean body

01:18.750 --> 01:21.820
mass or if you're overweight , it's

01:21.820 --> 01:23.598
simple . Put on some skin tight

01:23.598 --> 01:25.876
clothing and sit in the egg shaped pod .

01:25.876 --> 01:27.876
A few painless minutes later you're

01:27.876 --> 01:29.987
done after the reading , you attend a

01:29.987 --> 01:32.042
nutrition class to help you set your

01:32.042 --> 01:34.420
fitness goals from that class . You can

01:34.420 --> 01:37.410
identify what category , what areas of

01:37.410 --> 01:39.466
the body you would like to change or

01:39.466 --> 01:41.688
need to focus on . This will give you a

01:41.688 --> 01:44.300
good baseline to start making changes .

01:44.310 --> 01:46.032
You don't even need to make an

01:46.032 --> 01:48.143
appointment . Just walk into the Hawk
