This blog post shows you how to calculate your body fat percentage without embarrassment.
If you want to figure out your body fat percentage, your options are limited.
You can either find somebody skilled in using body fat calipers (which is a little embarrassing, as a stranger will be pinching your fat.)
You can find a “Bod Pod” which is expensive, inconvenient and still a bit embarrassing.
You can get a DEXA scan, which is the most accurate option but still super expensive and perhaps a little embarrassing.
Or you can quickly and easily calculate your body fat percentage without leaving your house.
You just need a scale, a tape measure and this handy online calculator.
I’ve found this calculator to be surprisingly accurate when estimating body fat percentage. It’s not perfect, but it’s definitely good enough.
