Thread: Slimguide or Accumeasure Fitness 3000 Calipers

Hey guys.
I am in the market for some calipers to test my bf%
I have pretty much ruled out the bf scales, the digital calipers and i dont have access to the underwater testing etc.

These two are the ones i have seen.

Slimguide


Accumeasure Fitness 3000


Now i have been told that the accu measure ones are cheaper as they do just the 3 fold test.
Where the slimguide ones (recommended in tom venuto's ebook) and that they are for someone else to test you doing the 7 skinfold test.

Anyone used either ?
Any advise would be great.
cheers

They suck because the calipers are too thick ..you get what you payfor and the electric scales and hand grips are trash as well. To many variables affect the reading. good pair of calicbers are like 100-200 bucks or more
