The method that is NOT used to measure body fat is the **Balance beam scale**. A balance beam scale is typically used to measure overall body weight, not body composition or body fat percentage. The other methods listed (underwater weighing, air displacement, and bioelectrical impedance) are all techniques used to estimate body fat percentage.
