Well the instructions they gave me said there were 3 spots.Originally Posted by verynecessary
how much did your calipers run you? i might get a pair eventually. also, which areas are you supposed to measure? the only time i ever had it done was in the 7th grade. i remember them checking a spot on the chest, around the lower obliques (where the "V" is), somewhere on the upper arms, and i think one or two places on the back.Originally Posted by I3
Sweet my caliper came in the mail today.. best week so far - everything came, maltodex/dex, 100% ON, caliper and my Ronaldinho Chinelo.
Anyways, did a quick test on my BF.. im down to 8% accordingly.. but I don't believe it one bit. Im more like a 12-11% for sure. Im going to get my friend/gym instructor to do it 3x next week to see an average. I was 14.6% in December '08 so anything hovering around the 12% mark is great for me. I was also 63.2kg back then and didn't even diet, just cut out soda and #%#!. Now fast-forward to July - Sept where I actually did diet, im at 62.5kg, with less BF!
I still want a dead on 10% though, so I can add a bit more mass/muscle and get up to 67/147 %!* by jan/feb next year..
I've also cut out bread from my diet for a 2 week period and just stuck to oatmeal, just to see if that has any effect.
Chest
Ab
Thigh
All on the right side. It set me back around $14 USD shipped overseas, so its probably less than $5 for you Americans.
