how do you determine body fat percentage? I have used my tanta scale, my moms hand held electronic device, the military body fat calculator and the covert bailey body fat calculator. found on fat2fitradio.com, all are significantly different. my scale says 38.5%, handheld device 32.5%. military calculator says 23.5%, and covert says 21.6%. how do I figure out what is correct?

None of them are reliable in figuring out your body fat percentage. If you really want to find out. Try more accurate ways like hydrostatic body fat testing, dexa scan or bod pod0
