Body Fat Measurement Is A Better Indicator Of Health Than The Number On Your Scale
A quality caliper mus provide identical pressure at each reading to produce reliably comparable information. In a University of New Mexico research comparison study sponsored by the American College of Sports Medicine to evaluate accuracy ranges for their members, the Body Caliper compared favorably to the Harpenden™ and Lang™ calipers each costing hundreds of dollars
The Body Caliper's accuracy is accomplished through its precicion engineering and patented AccuSpring™ which exerts 10 grams of pressure per square millimeter of skin (10 gr./mm2) during the full duration of any skinfold measurement.

Well, I have never tried jumping jacks with a caliper in my hand nor do I think you should but if you can think of a great exercise with one let me know.
To assure consistency and accuracy for reproducibility which lead to highly reliable readings over time simply place the Body Caliper(TM) on a skinfold at each of the indicated locations. Allow the caliper to close and read the number. Add up the numbers, check that figure against the chart enclosed with The Body Caliper(TM) and see your total body fat percentage.
