too high.
go into a nutrition store or gym and ask for a tour and if they offer it. water submersion is most accurate iirc. bod pod or other seems alright as well. calipers are okay for tracking, but obviously not entirely right (human error, etc.).
the little gripper things and the scales you stand on are terrible.

They had a device I imagine is similar to the thing (posted in the costco link) at my school's gym the other day. It also had metal surfaces for your feet in addition to the hand held grips.
The guys working the machine said that it passed a small current through your body and measured the resistance created by your fat stores.
I think they have it there every Tuesday. I don't know why, but it has me really motivated to get my fat % lower knowing that I can now check it weekly.
