What is the Army Body Fat Calculator & How does it work?
The Army Body Fat Calculator uses the US Army tape method to estimate body fat percentage based on measurements of the neck, waist, and hips (for women). This method is widely used in military settings for assessing physical fitness. The formula takes into account these specific measurements to provide a standardized body fat percentage that can be compared against established Army standards.To use this calculator, input your neck, waist, and hip measurements (for women). The calculator will then apply the US Army formula to determine your body fat percentage. This result can help you understand how your body composition compares to military fitness benchmarks, aiding in health and fitness goals.
BF\% = 86.010 – (90.720 \times e^{(-1.4759 \times \log(WAIST + HIP) – 43.277 \times \log(NECK))})
BF% = body fat percentage, WAIST = waist measurement, HIP = hip measurement, NECK = neck measurement
