Does anyone know the 10 points you can use when measuring body fat? I have the calipers but i can only find 3 points on the internet. Thanks

Try looking at the link below, it not only shows and describes the sites it does the claculation. . I'm no expert but I thought I read in journals that the Jackson/Pollock 7 site is one othe the more accepted caliper methods. Problem is getting someone to accuretely do the measurements, you won't be able to do them all yourself.
