Q: How Do I Accurately Measure Body Fat?

A: There are a variety of ways to measure body fat, though none of them are 100% accurate. I recommend body fat calipers.  Here are a few tips:

1. Be sure to measure the same spots on the body every time.
2. Measure under the same circumstances every time.
3. If not measuring it yourself, have the same person do it every time.
4. Don’t measure too often as that’s a good way to get discouraged.  Results take time.
