Estimating body fat %

Pastaprincess1978

Hey all I'm 169cm and 60.4kg at present. I have very little fat from the waist up but plenty around my thighs. I don't currently have access to any special technology devices for fat measurements (except perhaps calipers, will have to check). Any ideas on how to estimate body fat %? Also I'm nearly 40 and I'm female.

post pictures on here, there are a few seasoned MFPers who will give you a decent estimate.

No the best pic - please take my word for it that my thighs are 'generously' proportioned!! I'm 60kg and 169cm

It needs to be a bikini pic ideally, flexed and relaxed front/back/side

Agree. Very hard to tell anything by this picture. If you google body fat percentage chart you'll get 6-8 pictures of various body fat percentages from min to max and you can decide from that! It's great!
