There are numerous ways to measure body fat. We used to use calipers and measure the stomach- called it the pinch test. Now the Army uses a combination of waist, wrist, and neck measurements, plugs those into a table, and voila-you get a body fat percentage %. Not as accurate as the immersion test, but pretty good.
