Equation for bodyfat?

[The Shadow]

He said 24% Which can't be right!!! The last time I had it measured it was at 17% (different person measured) and that was last month.

I thought 18ish by the pics...Im sure thats a good number

There is NO WAY your 24%, I was under 21%, and you are MUCH leaner.

Don't even think about that anymore.

Yeah don't feel bad. That's why I bought electronic calipers... I was told a week ago by my supposed trainer that I was 24% body fat... I about choked. My calipers said 18% yesterday... So you know I just must have lost 6% body fat in a week.... Yeah right!

Does anybody use a scale with a bodyfat measuring feature? I got one for $40 and use it daily. According to the manual, as long as your bodyfat is above 5%, the reading will be accurate. But for some reason, I just don't believe the numbers I get from it. Sometimes when I'm working out regularly, eating right and getting stronger, the readings don't support a lean tissue gain.

I don't use the body fat feature on my scale. It's new also around $60... registers me at 25% body fat. I did it for two weeks straight every morning same time right when I got out of bed. It's useless... only good for weighing. Electronic calipers are the way to go....
