best way to measure bodyfat?

[the12thplanet]

ok soon i am gonna start cutting and i need a way to be able to measure my bodyfat on a regular basis so i can know how much of the weight im losing is muscle and how much is fat.

there are two ways i know of measuring at home, using a caliper and using those special scales that tell you your bodyfat percentage. the scale sounds cool but ive heard they can be a bit off. which way is more accurate?

do not, i repeat do not but those crap things from walmart where you enter your weight in and such, buy calipers.

Digital caliper, or get it measured up at the gym for a small fee.
