    Many thanks.

    Hard to tell due to hair factor, but we would put you somewhere in the upper teens. 18 +/- 1

    Thank you for the estimate, put myself at 20% so I'm pleased you have gone a bit lower.

    Aiming for 14-15% buy the beginning of June, eating super healthy and working out 3 times a week using All Pro's beginner workout with 30 mins of steady cardio at the end. Its been working like a dream.

    In the 24-25% range or so.

    Thanks for confirming my guess for me; that's about what I would have guessed. I've been using 4-point and a 7-point caliper measurements and getting waaaay lower (like 11%-15%) and knew from looking at pictures that they weren't right.

    Hi guys,

    I really would like my body fat estimated, however i do not have a PC at home and can only get on the message board whilst at work, is there any other way i can go about getting it done?

    Thanks

    Hi all

    Sorry we are so behind with this thread. We will try to get caught up soon.

    I went to the gym today (finally), and a trainer had me hold a body fat analysis tool in my hand, which told him I was 32% body fat. Hmm Ok. I asked about calipers, he did not have them, they use the handy dandy tool.

    I just spent an hour on line doing 5 different types of body fat analysis. I measured from my neck to my wrist to my forearm and thigh, with everything in between.

    The general consensus was approximately 27%

    This was the Navy site. I added the height for future reference. I am going to see if I can get a few pictures to post right now. I really want to know where I am starting and 5% is HUGE. Right?

    •Sex: female
    ^ Height:5'2"
    •Weight: 128 pounds
    •Wrist: 5.5 inches
    •Waist: 33 inches (at belly button)
    •Hip: 36 inches
    •Forearm: 9.5 inches

    Your body fat percentage is 26.2%.

    ETA::embarassed: after seeing my pictures, the 32% is probably correct

    Sidesteel, I got it to work. If you or Sara can use these great. I would like them deleted ASAP. Being a mod on the boards, I don't like having bathing suit pix up. Plus blech.

    Hi, been a while. You last estimated me, gosh, back in Summer last year sometime.
    Had a bit of up and down since then, as due to illness I had to take a month off last end Nov - end Dec, got totally off track until mid January, with little exercise and bad eating. Hit the gym again, minus my trainer, minus my boxing, just running, elliptical, cycling, weights, and lost weight(got a bit obsessed with it again)... maybe too much.

    So, hope you guys can take a look and come up with an estimate. Trainer's machine that he used last time (that you agreed with), was all over the place today, and gave two totally different numbers within 5 minutes of readings.

    Here is link. There are a variety of shots and poses there including those requested (as best as I could do with phone and mirror alone).
    Thanks.

    Edited to add - 5'10, 131Ibs.

    I'd like a new estimation please. I've been doing Bret Contreras Strong Curves bodyweight program (with some added weights on certain exercises) for about three months now.
