thats rather interesting as i would say it seems about right for me. looks like it takes into account your weight and size to see if you are more fat than anything else.

Just make sure you get your waist exactly right, one inch will make a big difference. (aw crap just read what I wrote)

I'm happier not knowing how much I weigh, but it's probably around 20.

Glad you found it funny, for a second there I thought you were lacking a sense of humour.

Probably a better gauge of body fat for men, you just need to know your waist size and height...

I'm 18.4% which sounds about right.

Never said it was perfect, just better than BMI. At 5.47% you're either on the last days training for Mr Universe or starving.

About 24.5 if my height is about right

24.5 - 5ft 8 161lbs

26.6

bloody thing is telling me I'm fat? :mad:

geeza · 9 Jun 2007 at 10:16

theres some beefy people amongst us!

me - 22.3

5'9
151 pounds

edit -bmi doesnt take into account the people that are huge blocks of muscle with no fat. Your not exactly overwight if your 15 stone and 5' 11. 26" waist but 15stone doesnt really count as overwight!

cheers. just doing it now. where is your waist, i know it sounds stupid but i always though men measured their waist as their hips, or is it just above the hips and do you breath in, out or just stay as normal to measure it?
