They may get discouraged and give it up, thinking their new regimen is not doing them any good. However, if they measured their percent of body fat regularly they would biking find they biking were biking replacing fat with muscle and, in fact, benefiting themselves greatly. Thus, rather than becoming discouraged, they would be encouraged to continue. Now that the importance of the percent of body fat measurements has been explained, we come to the question of how to measure it. There are two primary methods in use today. One is underwater weighing and the other is Skinfold Caliper measurements. Both are accurate. Underwater weighing tends to be more accurate than Skinfold Calipers for people above 40 percent body fat. For people in the 15 to 40 percent range, Skinfold Calipers and underwater weighing are about equal in accuracy. For people less than 15 percent body fat, underwater weighing becomes progressively less accurate and can be seriously in error for very lean people.
