Body Fat%

Anyone know of a place in or around Westchester, NY that does the hydrostatic bf?

do a google for bodpod... should yield exactly the same results, also the bodpod has updated their software and will now give you a readout of your BMR/RMR when you do the bf analysis

Bodpod isn't that much more accurate...

Did you set your Tanita to the "athletic profile" as you did your settings? ...readings for athletes get better then (but I would imagine that people with alot of muscles might get an more inaccurate reading, especially if one would use AAS...
I have a Tanita bf-scale as well, I have serious doubts about it. But I didn't buy it to get those super-accurate reading, but to see "about-ish" where I am. But they are funny... In the morning, before eating anything, I have a higher bf%. Then during the day, say after lunch, straight after eating and drinking. My weight is up and bf% will be up to 4% less... I chalk it down to amount of salt and water in the body. But one would think that you would actually get a more accurate reading in the morning... Since that is when your weight reading will be the most accurate...

They absolute most accurate test of BF% is the DEXA Scan. It is primarily used to measure bone density, but it can also calculate BF%. Since it is a whole body scan it will tell you what areas of your body have what BF%.
