Body fat comes from the US Navy circumference method — an estimate from girths, usually within about 3 points, and thrown off by where you personally carry weight. BMI is here because it is the number doctors and insurers use, not because it is the better answer: it is mass over height squared, and it cannot tell muscle from fat.
