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.
