SAN ANTONIO - Soldiers from the HHC, 4th Sustainment Command (EXP) were selected to attend a Body Composition Training at University of Texas -- San Antonio on June 18, 2014.

The training was conducted by Dr. Donovan Fogt and his team at the Exercise Biochemistry and Metabolism Laboratory(EBML) on the UTSA campus.

Soldiers learned the proper techniques when conducting the U.S. Army Body Composition tape test as well as other body composition analysis methods.

The EBML was established in 2005 to investigate mechanisms by which the body adapts to short-term and chronic exposure to stressors such as exercise, environmental, or dietary manipulation.
