Product Description:
The body fat calipers are used to measure body fat, it is very accurate, really easy to use and comes with its own body fat chart, and does the trick to read fat percentage.
No need to buy expensive body fat measuring devices. This is all you will ever need. Very easy to use and understand. You are able to keep an accurate record of your body fat and can now see that it actually is reducing.
Calipers easy to use and have a simple mechanism to ensure the correct and consistent amount of "squeeze" is applied when pinching a skin fold every time. The tables of results is not helpful and gives what I think are imprecise ranges of % body fat. There are precise separate formulae on the Web for men and for women with photographs and descriptions of skin-fold positions (men and women use different ones) which give exact % fat values based on individual measurements.
How To Use:
In terms of accuracy; it appears to be correct but obviously nothing to compare with other than images of typical body fat online. Regardless, cheap, easy to use and undamaged.
How to Use
Body fat calipers are easy to use in the privacy of your home, with superior accuracy and reliability.
Since most fat on the body is located directly under the skin,a very efficient and practical way to measure your body fat percentage is through skin-fold measurement, the scientific approach to the time-honored "pinch an inch” method. The Personal Body Fat Tester is a precision instrument that has been shown in clinical trials to be closer inaccuracy to the "gold standard” of underwater weighting than any of the more elaborate method of measuring body fat (without the inconvenience expense trained personnel,and lack of privacy these methods entail). So whether you choose to use the Personal Body Fat Tester privately or with the help of someone, just follow the simple steps below---it's as easy as 1,23.
STEP 1
The sites you will use for your skin-fold measurement depend on your gender and are illustrated on the rear of this instruction.
STEP 2
While standing, firmly pinch the skin fold between your left thumb and forefinger (see figures 1 and 2)Place the jaws of the Personal Body Fat Tester of the skin fold while continuing to hold the skin fold with the left hand (see figure 3). Please note: women need assistance to measure the "triceps" skin fold.
STEP 3
Press with the thumb where indicated on the Personal Body Fat Tester (see figure 4). Note where the sliding arrow points on the gauge. Repeat three times, and use the average as your body fat measurement. Refer to the body fat interpretation chart to determine your body fat percentage and what it means.

The body fat tester and thought it was easy to use with helpful instructions
Unless you have access to expensive laboratory equipment, there are
no really good other ways of measuring body fat other than
calipers. The sensors on treadmills and other handheld devices do
not record accurately as there are too many variables to take into
consideration and give you a totally unrealistic false reading.
So back to basics, it is what it is, a simple easy to use body fat
measuring device that allows you to grab your body fat about an
inch above your hip, and push the calliper handle in up to the
line, take 3 separate measurements and take an average from those
measurements.
There is also an easy to use chart to let you know if everything is
ok or not with your reading and there is an tape measure to allow
you to well errrr measure of course!
Great way of measuring body fat accurately without going to a group
of scientists, stripping off and jumping into a tank of water and
being probed!
