True. There are several methods for measuring body fat, such as underwater weighing, dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), bioelectrical impedance analysis, skinfold measurements, and air displacement plethysmography, among others. Each method has its own advantages and limitations, leading to variations in results. Factors such as hydration status, the skill of the technician, and the specific equipment used can all affect accuracy and consistency in body fat measurements.
