    sorry i am not jacking or taking the credit for fireguy.
    But i will post the link for him
    Step By Step, How to do a 9 Site Body Comp

    also when he sees this thread he will more input for you on the subject, but i think that is correct if your bf% is over 15 or so, you may get in accurate numbers..

    sorry Fg again.
