===Hydrostatic weighing===
Hydrostatic weighing is considered one of the most accurate ways of determining percentage body fat. One limitation might be that it might still be gendered! [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing Wikipedia's article on hydrostatic] weighing describes using gender to estimate residual lung volume, which is necessary. (Residual lung volume might also be determined more directly e.g. via gas dilution.)
