What a gay site! Silly music and awful background.

Not sure if the bf calculator is accurate.

its not as accurate as a pinch or multiple measurement method, but it is close... here's a link for one that is more accurate http://www.linear-software.com/online.html ...

its calculated based on the assumption of a 'regular' shape of body - if u have a particularly large or small waist, or genetically predisposed to storing fat in those areas (or NOT), then it will unfairly influence the calculation...
