What are the disadvantages of skin fold measurement?

Answer:
woman's have to open their cloths for measure different areas of the body.

Skinfold only calculates subcutaneous fay and not the visceral fat (fat lining the inside of organs). Different people taking the measurements, makes the result inaccurate and reduces the reliability
