Online body fat calculators, scales, omrom devices, and callipers are very inaccurate (listed in order of least accurate -> more accurate).
The only way to get a reasonably accurate number is a DEXA scan or a Bod Pod.0 -
or you can just measure at gym?0

I do a combination of caliper test (Parillo 9 site) + electronic body fat calculator. But as mentioned these can be fairly inaccurate.0

My train used this thing to measure mine, apparently way mo accurate than scales and stuff
