Digital Body Fat Caliper...

[4BADASS]

Just picked up some Digital calipers and wanted to know what is the best way to read both male and female body fat %?

I tried it on myself and the instruction said to pinch your chest , abdominal and thigh. When I had it professional done they pinched my calves, triceps, and my love handle.

Whats the best way and how Accurate is this divice.

it can be order from www.accufitness.com

It looks fairly good. The more places on your body you mesure the more accurate it can be. A least four mesures, but 5-6 even better. The only way to know how accurate is it as certain is to have a hydrostatic wieghing done and then on the same day use your caliper and compare. However, it is probably a good buy and will give you a good estimate of bf.

Well i did it on myself and it seems pretty acurrate.

Girls might have trouble pinching there triceps on there own but guys can do themselves with out any problems..
