Hi oldcodger,


thanks for an interesting question.


I've found one location that definitely does hydrostatic body weight
testing.  At 90 miles, it's a bit far from Sacramento but definitely
offers the service you require, as explained in this article:
URL: http://abclocal.go.com/kgo/health/022602_he_fat_necks.html

The director of San Francisco State University's Exercise Physiology
Lab is Marialice Kern, whose contact information can be found here:

A map of the SFSU gym is available:

Alternatively, you may want to consider sacrificing the percentage
point of accuracy in test results for the convenience of being able to
have the test performed right in sacramento.  For a comparison of the
different body composition test methods, see under the heading
"weighing the fat test options" on this page:

If you choose to opt for skin fold measurement, this test can be
performed right in Sacramento at one of the 24 Hour Fitness clubs.  To
find the nearest club, search here:
