if you look on the internet their are calculaters but are very unreliable. I got mine from a bimetric impediance monitor wich costs around 300quid or u can use body fat calipers wich your local health club should have.

Skin folds suck because they are inherantly off by at least 3% and thats assuming it was done perfectly. Even your average personal trainer is only going to be about as good as you are at it. Those electric scales blow too since what you ate and how hydrated you are affects it alot. If you want accuracy do the submersion one.

the most accurate way to find it is hydrosomething. I cant remember but its kinda expensive. They submerge you under water and find your body fat %.
The cheapest accurate way is a skin fold caliper
i have a scale that weighs me, also tells me my body fat % and my water %. I bought it for $50. Its pretty accurate.
