    Anon poll, vote honestly and lie in the comments if you wish. :D

    You can get a rough calculation here. All it involves is measuring around your waist and details you should know already.

    I can sit into my airline seat so I am ok, also had enough room to get frisky in the airplane bathroom with the missus so I think my body fat percentage is ok.

    I was at 9% last time I measured which was about 3 months ago but it's defiantly gone up a bit. I can still see my abs but there's not the same definition. I'm coming to the end of a bulking phase so I'm going to try and get it way down this time while I cut.
    Shredded brah;)

    26%?! :eek: I did guess my weight and waist measurement though. I'm thinking I guessed them wrong, I'll still slim though I'd like to lose a little bit.

    According to the information you entered, your total weight is approximately 49% body fat, which falls dangerously above the acceptable healthy range for your age and gender. For women between the age of 18-39, the healthy body fat percentage range is between 21-33%.

    I'm very pregnant though, fcuk you body fat calculator!!
    (I'm usually 21% when I haven't got the pregnancy)

    20% according to that calculator. I'm a fit person, play football and go to the gym regularly but my agility (or the lack of it) when playing football is a weakness in my game. Need a better diet I suppose.

    Calculator will not be accurate. If you want a proper measurement, use a callipers.
