confused about bodyfat %

Hiya,

Well I went to the gym today and got the dude there to sort me out with my bf%. Well he told me there were two kinds! He goes one is for normal fellas and the other is for atheletic dudes. He was saying the atheletic one is if you have a resting heart rate of 60 or below, or if you do over 10hrs of exercise a week. Well my resting heart rate was 61 but I don't do that much exercise, so I got both types of bodyfat %ages. The atheletic one was 7.6, and the normal one was 13.2. So can anyone tell me what the difference is between these 2 kinds of values.

Now I need to check that body fat thread so I can see what the top dogs bodyfat is compare myself and cry!

Gotta say thanks to everyone here that helps with queries and stuff cos none of you seem to have attitude problems and are always sharing information.

Nice1
