Body Fat Calculator
Body Fat Percentage is a measurement that estimates the proportion of fat in your body compared to your total body weight. It is a more accurate indicator of fitness and health than Body Mass Index (BMI), as it distinguishes between lean mass and fat mass. This page uses the US Navy Body Fat Formula, a widely recognized method that involves measurements of your neck, waist, and height for men, and neck, waist, hips, and height for women. These measurements are entered into a logarithmic formula to estimate your body fat percentage.
Understanding your body fat percentage can help you tailor your fitness and nutrition plans to better achieve your health goals. It is important to note that while this formula provides a useful estimate, it is not as precise as more advanced methods such as DEXA scans.
