    My trainer used the Omron on me to calculate it. When I first started it was around 35%. Last week it was 29.7% at 151.4#. Probably lower now. I've been hitting the gym pretty hard lately! :)


    I just checked it online and it said 26.1% . So there's 3.6% difference.

    Great website. Thanks! It says my BF% is 27%, but my scale says it's 29.5%. Which do you think is more accurate?

    WOW so many variations. I want to get an accurate reading now. I just use my scale and it tells me 18%, yet sometimes it's 19 or 20 it's tempramental I think!

    Mine is 27.5 with the omron handheld. Women who are not body builders or figure competitors should be in the range of 18-26. But I am far from my goal weight so I am looking to gain more lean body mass as I lose weight.

    I wouldn't trust a website.

    I work at a center with a DEXA machine (dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) that measure bone mineral density as well as body composition, where the fat is located, what % etc.

    Scientific psychic.com says I am 21% body fat.
    DEXA scan showed last time that I was (unfortunately) 26% body fat.

    I am 5'8" and 139 pounds (medium frame).

    Recent body compistion scan at a medical clinic put me at 26% down from 34%(my estimated over a year ago). My goal was 25% so guess I need to pump a bit more iron LOL

    I am 5'7" and was at 145 when I had mine done at 26% - those machines are the way to go.

    Way to freak me out...

    With the US Navy formula: 50.2%
    With the YMCA formula: 32.16%

    If I were really composed of 50% fat, I'd be much bigger than that IMO. Thanks US Navy for scaring the heck out of me! :P

    Damn, everybody is saying that this http://www.scientificpsychic.com/fitness/diet.html is accurate...then I'm really 50.2%?! I'm gonna cry...I may weight 180 at 5'2 but no really? 50%?! Everyone tells me I don't look like someone of 180 at all. O.o
