They usually take about a day to process your order then ship it out. Then it'll usually take 2-4 days in most cases to arrive.

alright, thanks for the clarification.

Suppose to be painful when we pinch our skin to measure? possible to do it alone?

8KG in 3 weeks? seriously? I would say it's too fast. do it slower.. and "SUSTAINABLE"

Guys just found quite a good workout especially to help out with the tummy.   Its called planking, it looks easy but trust me, after doing 5 sets you will start shaking.

Planking is a good core exercise but not magically tummy reduction exercise

There are a couple of pinch-sites where you take measurements when using the calipers. And a few different formulas based on the number of sites used. So yeah you could do it yourself. Though IINM, it can affect the accuracy if you limit the number of sites. But to give you a rough BF percentage, it's okay.
