Unless you did water test

Body fat tests are worthless

don't base anything off those tests, pretty innacurate.

you are making this waaaay too complicated
stop worrying about body fat % and measurements
keep working out and eating healthy

I only weigh myself once every morning and that is it.

Even expensive machines are pretty inaccurate. I've been measured like 3 weeks ago and it said I'm 3,6% bf, 20 minutes later, after drinking water it said I was 4%. Very lowered results, I think I'm above 10%. Same with my buddies. Mirrors and tape is the way I see it.
