Directions:

Place the jaws of the Personal Body Fat Tester over the skinfold (The site you will use for skinfold measurement is the suprailliac) while continuing to hold the skinfold with the left hand. Press with the thumb where indicated on the Personal Body Fat Tester until you feel a slight click. The slide member will automatically stop at the correct measurement see figure 5. After reading your measurement return the slide member to the far right starting position. Repeat three times and use the average as your measurement. Refer to the body fat interpretation chart to determine your body fat percentage and what it means.
