WTH? I lost 10 pounds and it kept telling me the same thing, which I knew was wrong because I had gone down a dress size. So I had the skin calipar test done and am happy to say that I am at 18% which is a lot better than 30%. The electrical empedence measurements in those hand held devices are set for the general population and do not take into account muscle mass and the like. Skin calipars all the way baby! I wish I had enough money to have the water tank test done, but like aragonmod said, they're prety close to the calipar. Just make sure that the person doing the reading knows how to measure correctly. MIke, I did the hand held device, and it kept telling me that I was 30% bf! WTH?

I have one of those scales and it's way off. I've also done the water tank and that result was the same as the calipers one. I agree with climber 55, I get measured with the calipers.

The trainers at the gym hooked me up the handheld devise that calculates body fat. I'm happy to say that I'm 18.5% body fat. It's not 10% but it's better than 28.2%. Thanks once again.
