[QUOTE="BigTex, post: 228345, member: 43589"] But hold on.....even skin fold caliper reading can be deceitful. A three sit reading is not nearly as accurate as a 7 site reading. Unfortunately it is more difficult and takes more time. So I got my wife to do a 7 site reading using the Jackson/Pollock formula and it came out a little different: [B]Seven Site[/B] Body Composition [B]Body Fat %: 7.52[/B] Lbs/Kgs of Body Fat: 18.05 Lean Body Weight: 221.95 This seems much more reasonable since I know I carry a little subscapular area. However, the times I have use a BIA device, I get reading like 28% and a BMI of 31. NO WAY. I have very thin skin for the most part even on the legs and very vascular. [/QUOTE]
