  • Bodyfat Scales... opinion.

    I have one and always wondered how accurate it was. So I had a trainer hit me with calipers (not literally) and I was 16% and came home to visit the scale which read 16% also. This was like 4 years ago.. still got the same scale and it says 18% now. Can these things be trusted at all? Is water displacement still the best way to find your bf%?

    I wouldn't trust it, unless your scale cost like 750$+

    Water displacement is one of the best (maybe the best) but the reality of getting it done is slim unless your at a university or pretty intense facility

    calipers, assuming correct use, are hands down the cheapest and most effective means of measuring body composition.
