How to calculate body fat?

[mlomker]

compared to a guy who is 6'3" with a 42" waist and weighs 200lbs.... is the bodyfat expected to be the same?

I know a guy with those measurements and he is in the 260's. 200 lbs, no way.

I am going to pick up a caliper for comparison purposes, but I doubt the readings will be more consistent than any other method. Assuming I can decide upon one of the many mathematical formulas for calipers....

Well, I took that example from myself. I'm 6'3", 205lbs and have a 42" waist....
