How do u gauge bf%

[ShawarmaFilth]

Navy fat calc says i’m 24%

When i look in the mirror, abs flexed i look about 18ish

When relaxed i look in the 22-23 range

Estimate and then add 3-5 percent on top of your estimation.

With abs flexed or not flexed

Not flexed. I assume you don't have access to measuring techniques. Gauge all areas of your body too, especially your thighs, back, love handles etc.

I measured my neck and waist on navy fat calc and it said 24


Any app that can tell me my fat% with all my measurements?

You could use hydrostatic weighting if you want to. It has one of the highest accuracy ratings with around a 2-5% chance of an inaccurate measure. You could also use calipers if you want to make it easier. They pinch the skin and pull fat away from the muscle to reveal how much you really have (not in %).

Don't forget that the measuring tool ( calipers ) are quite cheap and can give a more accurate result ( but still not very reliable ).

Hydrostatic weighing tests are available at some universities, medical research centers, and fitness centers. Unless you live in wyoming or some shi, you could contact one in your area if you want.

Is navy fat calc accurate?

It's pretty much the most inaccurate way to calculate your body fat and is not a good idea to use for progress. You can research it yourself.
