    Best way to measure BF?

    What's up guys. My first time on the BB board. XXL you look awesome. Hopefully I can get some pictures up soon so I can get you to critique. I was just wondering, what is the best method to measure BF?

    In water is the most accurate.

    Thanks Bro! the best way i find is, slap the gut, time how long it takes for it to stop jiggling, if you are over 10 sec. mark you are in trouble...anyway the hydrostatic test (under water method) is great untill you get to very low single digets and it's not very acuurate then i would say anything below 7% and the accurace level goes down...XXL

    Stay away from bioimpedance scales that force you to test the bf while you are standing upright.
