I keep seeing scales that provide you with your body fat %. Do these work? And if not what is good way to know your BF %?

Thanks.

The calipers you can buy in stores are a good way to measure body fat.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it is gone past me I will turn to see fear's path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain
