Sorry to interrupt.....

[beastboy]

but I have a fitness related question......

How in the hell can you accurately measure your body fat the same way each time? I can measure my self a dozen times and get 12 different readings......is there a trick to it?

 

[onerepmaximum]

Do you use calipers? How many sites? If you do it yourself, it can be pretty tough. I guess practice is the key. I take each reading 3 times and take the average. You have to practice enough to become consistent though.

stop eating donuts between readings

3 sites......front delt....quad.....and abdomen.

Do you recommend differently?

 

[jerkbox]

i find it nearly impossible.....

 

[velvett]

Practice.

 

[beastboy]

I can manage to lose 3% BF in 10 minutes....I'm that damn good.

[beastboy]

Practice.

Yeah....but according to my wife, all this practice for making babies and I'm still no good.

I think the nine site may be a bit more accurate, but you can't do it on yourself because it includes sub-scapular and suprilliac. If you do it the same way each time, 3 site is fine. After all, the number is not the most important thing, making progress is.

True...but did you miss that I can diet for 10 minutes between measurements and drop my bf 3 points? LOL....I know what you mean though...I just must suck at it.

I'm glad someone finally said it.

3% in ten minutes? Sweet, I'd like to see your cycle.

Just practice, bro. You'll get used to it.

Do what everyone else does, just use the smallest measurement every time you measure so your always losing fat lol
