What would you guys I use to measure bodyfat - calipers or b/f scales?

(i do not have any experience with calipers but they come with an instruction book; but i wasw told it is difficult to use them without experience)

Please advise. Thanks

Calipers are a much better indication of were you are at.

Difficult to use without experience and difficult to use on yourself (unless you are doing a three site test).

Most gyms will do it for free if you just ask at the desk or ask a personal trainer there.

Calipers are going to be more accurate.
