The ONLY real accurate way to determine the amount of body fat is?
Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DXA (formerly DEXA), is a newer method for estimating body fat percentage, and is commonly cited as the current gold standard for body composition testing.* Immersion: This method is based on the fact that lean tissue (muscles,bones, etc.) tends to sink in water, while fat floats. The client is seatedin a chair which hangs from a scale, rather like a scale in a supermarket'sproduce section. The chair and the client are lowered into a pool of wateruntil the client is completely immersed, and the client's weight (whileimmersed) is recorded. The fatter you are, the more you tend to float, andthe lower your immersed weight will be--muscular people weigh more than fatpeople while immersed.
