Bod pod vs hand held bf % Test

Ok guys -- This has got me in a hugeeee twist...

I have been tested serveral times in a bod pod and as many times as I want on a handheld bf tester....

No joke -- the bodpod is about 10% higher each time... how does this even make sense???


Also, on the handheld -- what is the true difference when they say "normal" or "athlete" as far as the mode you can choose.. I play ball a few times a week and workout 4-5x a week -- so what am I considered? I have always been an athlete but dont play professional sports..
 
The bod pod measures your visceral fat which the calipers can't. So, your bf % will always be higher with a bod pod. This is your TRUE bf %, though.
 
im guessing measure your actual waist line -- then again at the naval level. (usually thats where a "belly" will stick out most)
 
anyone tried the metal plates you stand on with your bare feet to measure your bodyfat, was wondering how accurate they are
