Ok, I used your site to calculate my BF today. (I had a trainer at the gym take the measurements with the gym's metal calipers.) But...I have discrepancies.

Also, I only took each measurement once, and use that number for the three values. Don't know if that's a big deal. We were pressed for time.

With the 7 point method, I got 14.88%. Using the same numbers with the 3 point calculation, I got 11.93%. I'm assuming the 7 point is the more accurate and I really am a fat ***? Do you normally have that much of a difference.

Also, the trainer thought for sure that the 7 point took a pinch on the calf. As she remembered it anyway. Are there different methods? If so, why did you choose this one?

Larry I use Jackson-Pollock 3 and 7 site, the Pollock 3 site and something called "P-9" and it is only the latter that takes the calf.
