Hey guys there used to be a website that you could plug in your skinfold measurements directly and it does the bf equation for you…do you all know where this is at?
What is the difference between all those options just the number of sites you pinch?
Thanks Thib, I had a similar site (those pictures look awfully familiar!) but I lost it. I also lost my calipers, but a new pair should be arriving today, so good timing!
A very convenient resource, good to know.
I was interested to see that last method of using only height, neck, and waist measurements. While I don’t know the general validity of it, I’m sure it was much more accurate in my case than Jackson/Pollock 3-site, which underestimated. It would be interesting to know if it seemed to work well for others.
Actually it seems to me nothing but DEXA is reliable, but so far as tracking individual progress goes, the skinfold calculations are good for measuring change, though I think not for estimating closely how far to endpoint.
