How do I calculate my body fat?
Is there some website I can calculate it with? Because I'm not overweight in weight for my height and age but I'm afraid becasue I have a lot of flubber on my stomach. Is there a way I can get rid of that too, becasue i heard dieting and ab crunches don't work for that.

- There is no online test that can even get close, because there is no mathematic algorithm for calculating bodyfat. Everyone's is different. Your local gym should have a machine that can calculate it for you. It should cost somewhere between $30-$80 to get your bodyfat tested.

- You can calculate BMI, but that is a pretty poor test. You can also go to a gym and they may have a caliper test. This can be somewhat effective, but you may get different results based on the person who is doing the test. Tanita makes scales that measure body fat. They have fairly good reviews. I like them because they are consistent. They may be off a little because of their calculations, but it will be consistent for you every day which is the best that you will get other than some fairly pricey alternatives -- measuring buayancy, etc. Good Luck!
- belly is usually first place body stores fat you can have abs under fat YES do crunches once you got abs they will burn off the fat muscles work 24/7 and burn the fat off sooo...work out a diet where ur not eating more than you burn and excercise and lift weights....do some deadlifts and squats it will definately help
