If you are white use this formula to calculate body fat percentage with a standard error of the estimate (SEE) of 4.74%:
We studied a sample of 6,510 white subjects (2,154 men, 4,356 women), aged 18–80 years, including patients visiting our department. The study was performed to valuate the usefulness of a new equation: BF% = –44.988 + (0.503 x age) + (10.689 x sex) + (3.172 x BMI) – (0.026 x
BMI^2) + (0.181 x BMI x sex) – (0.02 x BMI x age) – (0.005 x BMI^2 x sex) + (0.00021 x BMI^2 x age) where male =
0 and female = 1 for sex, and age in years, developed by multiple regression to predict BF%
