(Strange as it may sound, sometimes I am taller, measuring at 5'11.'' I think it has something to do with the fact that have been getting alignment treatments done at the chiropractor.) Anyways, can you tell by this information? I am fairly athletic, and have well defined calf and thigh muscles. My abs are trim as well, and are hard when I flex, although I don't have a six pack or anything serious like that. Wow, I don't at any of that crap. I am a vegetarian and eat a lot of soy. I do have carbs and stuff though, like some breads and tortilla. I exercise quite often, like I said before.

How accurate are the scales that measure body fat? I am speaking of the floor scales that anyone can purchase for little more than a simple bathroom scale.

Thoughts?

Help with calculating and determining Body Fat Percentage loss for a friendly competition.? I began a body fat % loss challenge with some friends. I'd like to know the best way to determine the winner. We thought about going off of weight percentage lost, but felt it would be unfair to those who had less weight to lose. There were also some concern because some wanted to lift weights... so then we went with whoever dropped more body fat percentage. But we feel unsure about using this method. We feel someone who started at 45% body fat would have an easier time dropping than someone with 20% body fat. This is where the problem arises. What should we do? How do we judge the winner fairly?

my body fat percentage is 10% is this bad? I have read that athlete women should not have a body fat percentage that's lower than 20%. When I went to a nutritionist she calculated my body fat for me and it was 11%, thru out highschool and college it's hovered between 10-11& (at highest percent). But yet I am 5'1 and 110 lbs. That leaves me with almost 10 lbs of fat on my body while the rest is muscle mass. Is this bad? I used to be a dancer, and before a gymnast, I've always been small and I feel fine this way. Are there any negatives effects of having too low a body fat % asides from period loss. I get my period as long as I am over 98lbs. Do you think I am healthy??? I was wierded out by the fact that my bdy fat % is so low, I'm small boned + all but I do not look like a refugee at all. Advice would help anyone who knows anythng about what body fat means and what it does to your general health...........THANKS!!

2. The formula used to calculate the percentage of body fat for men is –? % Body fat = (-98.42 + 4.15 w - 0.082 b) / b Where, "w” is the waist measurement in inches and "b" is the total body weight in pounds. What is the body fat for a man weighing 156 pounds and waist measurement 32 inches. Round the percentage to the nearest integer. I came up with .14 that does not seem right for some reason
no way this is my body fat percentage, is it? Today I did a body fat percentage check on apparently just some sort of scale. It asked gender, age, and how often i did physical activity, It then measured my weight, (it had those medal foot prints) then a thing came down and tapped my head to measure my height. and that was it???, then it said my body fat was 19.7%!!! In highschool i had a 6% body fat using a caliper test, I weighed just 12 pounds less, that was 3 years ago Now im not stating any of this to brag or anything dumb like that but, I now weigh 142 pounds and since then i have regularly worked out 2-3 times a week, eat healthy and have almost completely cut drinking pop, I have a clear 6 pack, and very noticible vascularity expecially in my arms, (i have never had the abs in highschool) i am in better shape then I was then too. and I just didnt think that was possible or at least plausible to have visible abs and veins with 20% body fat. Sorry if this whole thing seemed stupid to ask but I was just shocked that all my weight training and exercising rewarded me 14% more body fat... I just gotta know from you guys was this method really a useful way to find out my bf%? I honestly can not believe this method is at all an accurate way to calculate body fat, it just didnt seem like enough information that i gave it. I know that I quite possibly could have gained body fat. obviously expecting to be below 6% is somewhat unrealistic. but i was expecting to be around 8-10% not 20. Also I'm not trying to lose weight lol I've actually been trying (although slower than i would like) to gain weight.

Olypic athlete body fat-8% for men, what is womens? Also, how do they calculate that?

Body fat % Amateur Boxer? Hi I'm getting back into boxin after a spell out. I used to compete at around 69 kilos (152 pounds) and currently weigh 77 kilos (169). I'm 5'8'' and everyone i fought at 69 Kilos (6 fights - 3 wins, 3 losses) were always taller which was annoying. I calculated my body fat using calipers and the 7 site test and am currently 21.77% body fat. Ideally i'd like to compete again at 64 Kilos (141 pounds)- light welter. This would mean having a body fat percentage of 6.24 % though - is this ok? I have no doubts I could do it because i am a very hard and dedicated trainer and am well aware of correct nutrition and protein requirements for maintainig muscle mass. I just wanted your advice as to whether this is safe and/or advisable. The next weight catagory up is 69 Kilos - welter - my old weight and would mean a body fat % of 12.76%.

Concerned about possible high Body Fat percentage? Hiya everyone, I just have a little question about body fat etc. I've not had a chance to have my body fat calculated but from a hunch I would generalize that i'm not in a fantastic position regarding it. I've just turned 20, Male, I'm 5'10" and only 9.5 stone (133 pounds). However I feel quite flabby around the waist which doesn't seem like such a huge problem when i'm standing up, my navel just seems to be pretty average, not flat, but not fat either. However when I sit down, It's like i'm just as overweight as somebody almost obese. Hope i've made my dilemma as clear as possible and what would you suggest? People always comment me as being thin but from what I read, you can look slim to people but have a high body fat percentage. If I loose body fat won't that affect my overall weight? Which is already on the underweight scale for somebody of my height.
Body fat chart makes no sense for me...? i went on http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/ and calculated my body fat, but it make sno sense after... i weigh 118Ibs, my waist is 28' , my hips are 38', my wrist is 6 and my foram (im not sure where to mesure that but i guess im 9') so they said i had a Body Fat Percentage of 32.62%. im only 5'6 and im 16 years old. then they tell you to go see what your ideal weight would be and they calculate your wight and your body fata nd tell you how much weight youd have to lsoe to go to your perfect weigh and id have to go to 137Ibs.... are they saying i have too much body fat? i dont understand anything..
Body fat Percentage, Machine Calculated Question? I use a body fat machine, you grip it and it sends the signal through the body and comes back with a random number of how much of your body is fat, yes i know they're not accurate, but I've been dunked under water multiple times, which is about 95% accurate i'd say, and it's been known to be about 2-4% off (the machine compared to the dunking). Anyway as for my question, Why does age have anything to do with how much fat is in my body? for instance, the machine tester, said i was 16% body fat, but my birthday is this thursday, so I put that I was 19 instead of 18 just to check, and It dropped me down to 13%. That doesn't make any sense , how should age affect how much fat is in the body? I know age is used to determine a healthy level of % fat in the body, but it shouldn't affect how much fat is IN the body? any ideas? Thanks
Most accurate body fat estimator? Aside from water displacement, does anyone know the most accurate formula for calculating body fat percentage? I get a huge range. According the YMCA formula, I'm obese (funny because I'm also considered severely underweight for my height), and according to the U.S. Navy's formula, I'm an athlete (also far from accurate). Thanks! (Also, please do not direct me to BMI calculator. I know my BMI. I'm looking for an accurate body fat estimation.)
What do you think about the scale that not only weighs you but checks your fat ratio.? There are supposed to be sensors where you place your feet & it can tell your fat ratio "using a harmless electronic current ." I says it "measures body fat for a more complete picture of your total health" & "Measures weight, changes in weight and calculates body fat percentage" Has anyone used this? Does it work? I'm considering getting it because I am doing a lot of weight lifting as well as starting a diet after the holidays. So I will be gaining muscle as I lose fat. I want a scale that will tell me if that 5 pound weight loss means I lost 10lb fat & gained 5 lb muscle OR just lost 5 lb fat.
Body fat percentage testing accuracy? I have a scale that shows my body fat (not sure how it works) but it says 31. According to a height and weight chart I am also around 30-31 (which is fat.) I have a lot of muscle though, especially in my legs and I work out 5 times a week pretty vigorously so I always wondered if that fat reading was high. So, i had my personal trainer calculate my body fat with calipers and it came out at 21. I was shocked thats more than 30% less than the other readings. I'm 5'7" and 1/2" and weigh 180. Should I just get another test because so far the readings have ranged from "very good" to "overweight" I'd really like to know which reading is correct. Opinions please.
Body fat of 5.76%! Impossible!?!?!? Hi I just calculated my body fat percentage using http://www.bmi-calculator.net/body-fat-calculator/body-fat-chart.php.

Athletes have a body fat of 6-13% If this is incorrect can anyone recommend a RELIABLE body fat calculator please? Thanks I tried the link from MotoX86 the BFP result was 3.08% And yes I am very tall (6.2"/6.3") I tried the link from MotoX86 the BFP result was 3.08% And yes I am very tall (6.2"/6.3"), slim and rather muscular

Female body fat percentage question...? Alright, I am a little confused. I am in pretty good shape and currently at 22% body fat. But I'd like to tone up even more and see some muscle definition. I read that for women, muscle will not show until you get to under 14% bodyfat. Well, that seems really low to me...I calculated the weight I would need to be at to get down to that kind of percentage and the BMI came out to read that I would be really underweight. I jsut don't get it! Can anyone explain this to me? Thanks!

How can I work out the maximum calories, fat etc I should consume a day in order to not gain weight but lose? I am slim but I am currently trying to get rid of the puppy fat areas so muscle will show more but I don't believe in starving myself or eating ridiculously small amounts of food. I want to eat the right amount and have that energy I need to get me through the day but at the same time lower the percentage of fat on my body.. I've lost so much weight since january just by changing the amount of food I eat. I use to just eat 1 big meal a day and have minor snacks now and again but mid january I started eating 3 small portions per day. I thought I would be hunrgy and want more but I found that I started to feel full up.. it was like my stomach shrunk. I am happy with the results because I said to myself I was going to get them and I did. Now I want to eliminate all the unecessary puppy fat on my body and get the muscle to show so I can atleast be 100% satisfied with my body instead of %60. I would appreciate some advice. I am ready to calculate but need to know what.

How is bodyfat percentage calculated? How is bodyfat percentage calculated? Is it possible for a man with, say, 30-40% of body fat to go down to 5-8% of bodyfat, and what would be the major difficulties in slimming down even with a full dieting and average workout? Is it true that fat stored around internal organs cannot be cleared through dieting and even workout, unlike fat under the skin?
Losing 40lbs? Ok i am a jr. in high school and have always been bigger than the rest of the kids but not really obeice. I play football and my coach tested my body fat content on a scale of some kind...needless to say its 30% and i have calculated that in order to get to a healthy percentage ie. 15-25% i must lose 40lbs before football starts in May. Now im involved with wrestling (which is a very intense and high in cardiovascular exercise), and ive always worked out regularly. A university nutritionist also calculated that i need 4,200 calories a day to maintain my weight so i've changed my diet so that i eat less than 3,000 calories aday so that by the end of the week i cut 7,000 calories out of my diet or 2 lbs. Sorry for the life story but i just want to know if this is a good way to lose weight and if there are any other things i can do to get down to 225 by May and still maintain my strength in the weight room? Is there anything else i can do? thanks
How much Protein should I be consuming? I weight train for 1hr 5 times per week moderate weights? I also do cardio in the same sessions for 30-40mins per workout... I need to know grams or some articles or websites to calculate how many grams for this much activity to actually build muscle (and hopefully lose some body fat percentage). I am male 5'10 or 179cms and 81kgs or 178 pounds medium frame. Also any other advice on building muscle while keeping calories low (1300 per day 40-50% protein). Please only serious answers. Thanks heaps :)
