Hey everyone, my name is CJ. I just started on this site last week. I'm 5'10 205, looking to get down to between 180 and 190. I was actually curious about the way this site calculates body fat. I have a scale that supposedly calculates it at 34% and on here it calculates it at 21%. If anyone can tell me how to accurately get this, please let me know.

Each method will be different. It's best to pick one and follow it and use it for the guide. As long as it's going down, that's what you want.

One of the best is calipers done by someone who knows how to use them. Some gyms have them.
