does seeing your bads mean you have a low body fat? Also does anybody know an accurate way to measure it online without a calliper?

Seeing your abs means that your body fat percentage is below ~13 percent. Which is really good. You could use a online body fat test here.

jmanjman47 seeing your abs doesnt mean that your body fat is below 13 unless your a women. Women have to have a higher bf% as they are child bearers. For men it is around 11%. Unless you meant for women.

Depending on your physique, you might see abs but carry more weight in your bottom half. You can try an electronic fat measurement, like a scale or hand-held device that sends a current through you.

I wouldn't EVER depend on something on the computer for an accurate reading.

The two most realistic are the calipers test (done by someone who is not you) and the water-submerging test.

Women usually (read: usually does not apply to everyone) develop a stomach "line" between 18-20 percent.

I agree with Spirophita here. Last I was checked, I had 30% body fat, and it was all in my butt and thighs, witha slight amount in my abs from the baby.
