Just wondering which method is more "accurate"?
I've done the calculations using the Military Body Fat Calculator and the Covert Bailey Body Fat Calculation and end up with 2 VERY different outcomes.
CBBFC - 28.83% body fat
MBFC - 42.83% body fat
Any thoughts?

bump because I would love to know the most accurate way as well without going to the gym or my physician for "official" body fat measurements.0
