| | | Hydrodensitometry Weighing Where does one go to get Hydrodensitometry (underwater) Weighing?
I've had trouble finding it via email searches. I'd like to get a good idea what my body fat% really is and it sounds like it's perhaps the best method.
...also what is a typical price for having this done?

Do you use the scales that send the electric pulse through your body to measure fat?
I know they can be pretty inaccurate, at least mine seems to be. Just wanted to know what you might have seen with your experience. |

I think my eyeball method tells me somewhere between those 2. My Tanita scale says between 18-21% I don't believe for a second I'm that high |  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | | | Display Modes | Rate This Thread | Linear Mode | |
