Your "body fat %" is the average between numerous places, it could be 10% in one spot & 14% in another
It's easy to look at the abdomen and think it's higher than it really is simply because your abs aren't as developed as other people's

The extremities usually lose first(hands, arms etc), with the lower abdominal & "love handles" being last in males
You have vascularity and clear separation of muscle groups; for the sake of the internet I'd guesstimate 12-13% average(I see a lot of DXA x-rays)

Just did the caliper test. 11%. I know these are inaccurate. So Add 3 to whatever the calipers say. So yeah about 14%

The goal it to find one way to measure your bf%. In college for soccer, we tested our bf% with a machine that you stand on, give inputs such as height/age/etc and then you hold these handles while standing on the scale they are connected to. You get a bf% for your total body, your arms, legs, trunk of the body, glutes, etc.
The thing is, it could be 1% off or 3% off on the measurements. BUT each time you measure you know it is consistent because you are controlling the environment. So you can track bf% gain and loss even with the variance these machines have because it is always the same machine.
