    Thinking about it....this might be because my abs are somewhat more developed than before and tend to make the waist slightly bigger (maybe half to one inch) than would be the case if I did not work out.

    New Way to Calculate Your Body Fat is Easier and More Accurate

    I measure it using a handheld ultrasound device. Bodymetrix I think it's called. I also have a DEXA scan done every 2 to 3 months. The bf % estimate from the scan comes in at a 2 or 3 points above the bodymetrix device estimate.

    New Way to Calculate Your Body Fat is Easier and More Accurate

    I have been measuring my own waist and bodyfat percentage on a weekly basis for the past 2 yrs. For me, the above formula underestimated my bf % for when i was very fat and overestimates now when I'm quite lean. Not by much however....so I would say it is of practical benefit.

    Dest's keys to physical health

    Says 1000iu of vitamin d in the headline....but ingredients says 400iu. So bit misleading. In any case , amounts of vit d, magnesium, zinc, b12 are very low compared to what people need. I didn't look at all the other stuff in there. Edit...just noticed the vit c amount...cheap filler....

    Dest's keys to physical health

    That's because they are useless. The ingredients tend to be crap (magnesium oxide is the usual magnesium compound used, if you have this in your multi, u know u have a useless product) and they compete with each other in terms of absorption.

    how to NOT take responsibilty
