fat %

can someone tell me how to measure my body fat % seen it on the bottom of some postings I know I am over weight but want to know how bad it is plus want to keep a check on it as I am training thanks in advance
 
There are several ways. The best is to get a body fat caliper and use various calculation methods (measuring skin folds) to find it. Second, you could go to a local gym and they could do it for you. Finally, that is a very accurate way of measuring and this involves being dunked in a pool of water and measurments are made. Again you would have to find a place locally that does this. But the best way is the skin fold method. Finally, I'd stay away from body fat scales cause they are horribly inaccurate. Good luck
 
Or you could weigh yourself nude on a scale and convert it to newtons, and then measure your weight completely submerged in pure water and calculate it into newtons. Then calculate the bouant force, which is the difference of the two, the larger the force the more bodyfat.. :) lol, that's the most accurate way, but I've never seen or heard of it being done.. waz said it, capiler.
