measuring body fat

[Julia37]

I'm a lady who has some meat on my frame, i am 5'4 and around 145 pounds last time i weighed myself at the doctors. i have some chunk and wide hips. i asked the front desk guy at the gym if they had any way to test for body fat and he didn't think they did. how can i find out for sure what my body fat is?

I suggest you do calipers and check skin around lower abs.

Go online - they'll b a place that can do it near by

in body machines if you can find one to use... hydrostatic testing is the most accurate method

at the end of the day quite frankly simply posting a pic will get opinions. even with all the suggestions above human error can still be off vs. just posting a pic

Calipers, while not the most accurate, are close enough, cheap to buy, and will allow you to track yourself as you progress.

You shouldn't care or worry what the number says your body fat is. Just work on getting it down to where you're haply with yourself

get a body fat analysis

why does it matter? just go how you look in the mirror, don’t worry about body fat or weight..
