Best Mothod to Find out Body Fat Percentage?
The most accurate way to estimate your body fat percentage and figure out if you need to lose body weight is hydrostatic testing, but you can’ t do that at home. I’d recommend a combination of measurements with a tape measure, and a set of body fat calipers. The calipers take time to get right but if you really want to track accurately it’s really your only option.
You could also go to a local gym and have them perform the body caliper tests on you if you are not comfortable doing it yourself. Most of the measurements are not hard however so you should be okay.
