How this Body stats works

This tool groups the most useful body-composition numbers in one place: BMI, waist-to-height ratio (WHtR), a rough body-fat estimate, and a practical daily protein range. None of them is perfect on its own, but together they give a useful picture for planning.

Calculation method

BMI = weight (kg) ÷ height² (m). WHtR = waist ÷ height. Body-fat uses the U.S. Navy method (waist/neck/height ratios for men, and adds hip for women when provided). Protein target is 1.6–2.2 g per kg of body-weight for most active adults.

Real-life uses

  • Checking progress alongside scale weight
  • Picking a realistic daily protein target
  • Setting a waist-measurement goal instead of only a scale goal
  • Baselining before a fat-loss or muscle-gain phase

Frequently asked questions

Is BMI useful?

For general populations, yes. It is less useful for very muscular people, very short people, or the very tall.

What is a good waist-to-height ratio?

Under 0.5 is typically considered a healthy range for adults.

How accurate is the body-fat estimate?

Within a few percent for most people. Bodpod, DEXA and hydrostatic testing are more precise but much harder to access.
