    26% bodyfat.
    53 pounds of fat, 151 pounds of lean (muscle, bone, water)

    Ideal: 22%

    Now to figure out what that computes to on weight and see if my target weight is appropriate.

    I got 18.6% which is quite a bit lower than I thought it would be!

    I've just been comparing different sites:

    HealthCentral: 18.6%
    Livestrong: 23.9%
    Bmi-calculator.com: 25.9%
    Linear-software.com: 23.9%
    Scientificpsychic: 23.7%

    :laugh:

    I recently had a dexa scan and all of the online calculators are wrong for me by 3-5 percentage points. The closest was the health status website. My dexa scan was consistent with my caliper reading at my gym though.

    Using the Health Status website and the YMCA numbers, my % is 29.44. If it uses the military one it is 36%.

    As close as I can figure, if I lose another 20# while continuing to maintain muscle mass I'll be at 22%.

    I had a hydrostatic test recently (which is the most accurate way to measure body fat %) and this says 10% less than this site does. i wouldn't trust this site for accuracy...

    I always joke I have a 1:1 ratio of bodyfat - one body and one lot of fat!

    Your Results

    You have 25% body fat.

    You have 37.8 Pounds of fat and 113.2 Pounds of lean (muscle, bone, body water).

    It may not be as accurate as some methods, but its still a damn sight better than my starting reading of 53% bf when I first used a set of Tanita scales.
