Hey /fit/, I need a scale that isn't crappy. IE: your weight doesn't change if you move the scale around the room, or if you step on it a second time.

Electronic is preferable...

Suggestions?

yes you are. doesn't fucking matter what scale you use. you will still be fucking fat and you will weigh the same everytime you use it.

Put a weight on the scale and measure its reading. Then, get on the scale with the weight and record the reading. Subtract the initial reading from the second one. This will ensure an accurate measurement of your weight even if your scale isn't calibrated to 0 properly.

From all accounts, the submersion tanks are the most accurate form of commonly available measurement device.

Problem solved.

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DXA (formerly DEXA), is a good method for estimating body fat percentage.

Two different types of X-ray scans the body, one that detects all tissues and another that doesn't detect fat. A computer can subtract the second picture from the first one, giving only fat detection. The mass of this can be estimated by the grade of exposure.

You could just take the measurement a bunch of times and then use the mean +/- the standard deviation.
