Hi all,

We get a lot of questions about how body fat is determined and I think most of us use visual guides :confused:

I found a website with a fairly accurate method, it compared well against readings I have been getting from my calipers and BIA. Just remember the calculations this will be based on will use a lot of assumptions, be doubly indirect and be based on a population of sedentary caucasians :lift:

It can be found here: http://www.he.net/~zone/prothd2.html

For converting metric to imperial use this: http://www.onlineconversion.com/

How about you post your BF % when you work it out! If we all used the same method it would be better for comparisons
