My guess is a little bit less than 22%. Do you have access to calipers?

I was thinking same. I think 22% looks worse than that.

seems about right.. probably somewhere in between 19-23% Electronic scales aren't THAT far off unless you have a lot of muscle, which he doesn't (no offense)

there is actually a lot of room for error on an electronic scale.

DEXA is the only accurate measurement of bf%. since most of us won't be using this method any time soon, other forms should be taken as an estimate.

Ya, that's kinda what I was saying. If his scale says 22%, it's probably around there. I'm sure it's not as low as 10% and not as high as 30%.

Why do people blackout their faces when they post pics. I have never understood that.

My scale read 14% and 29% about 10 seconds apart, pretty fresh batteries. They suck.

Did you have surgery?

Hmm, I'll have to tell myself of this frequently.

Anyone who has been working out as long as you probably has a lot of muscle, of course it isn't going to be accurate for you.
