    Bodyfat percent estimate?

    I have a home bf/weight/water percent scale. It says I am at 9.0% body fat. I went to my University gym it has a hand held body fat measuring device. It says I'm at 5.1% what is the deal? Both were electromagnetic scanning devices. Has anyone else found these completely unreliable? Anyone care to give me a visual estimate?

    Both pictures are cold one is flexed one is not.

    Thanks. everyone.
