STop talk to me like that and using your stupid brain to produce this kind of infantile joke of imitating CHINESES(Sorry, I am japanese).
During your joking about us(OK your low education say that Jap and chinese are same.), Japan is the most technologoicaly progressed country of the world.

I don't think there is a 100% accurate method, but there are far more less than accurate methods than accurate.
Who says the person doing the skin-fold test isn't grabbing more skin than the previous person, and giving a far different reading? Or maybe you're blowing out all your air on the hydrostatic test? Lots of variables.
I know I've been tested at 5.7% using a skin fold test, but I didn't look like it IMO. So at that point I was thinking that the pros "must" be at 2-3% if what the magazines say is true! ::)
In recent times I've been far leaner than when I was measured previously...does that mean I was at 5% or below? I don't think so.
That's why judges at a contest don't use what the person weighs or has for body fat % in their results.

blowing out all your air?!...are you serious?...lol...

do you know how hydrostatic testing works?

That part I just repeated from a personal trainer I talked to many a moon ago. My point was just that there are inaccuracies in every test, apparently just as in believing the personal trainer I spoke to 12 years ago!
However, yes I do know how how the hydrostatic test works. :(

Kyomu is right about this. my first few shows i never had a bodyfat test done. i had been competing 10 years before the first b/f test i ever had.   i went into those shows shredded. later on, i had access to b/f testing, and they would show 3-4 percent before a show. you tend to not diet as hard if you think you are 3-4 percent, because that's what everyone competes at.

i was never as lean on stage once i started getting b/f testing done, because they always showed i was lean enough.  and i would relax and eat more icecream. if i never got tested and just felt my low back, i would have kept getting shredded.
