About the Body Fat Calculator

The U.S. Navy method estimates body fat from simple tape-measure circumferences. It's not as precise as a DEXA scan or hydrostatic weighing, but it's free, repeatable, and useful for tracking trends.

Measure with a flexible tape, snug but not compressing the skin. Take measurements first thing in the morning for consistency.

Frequently asked questions

Generally within 3–4 percentage points of clinical methods for most adults. Best used to track change over time rather than as an absolute number.
