Why the Army uses tape
Circumference-based methods are fast and repeatable for group assessments when more advanced testing isn't available.
Assumptions
This calculator uses circumference-based formulas and typical age brackets. Results require valid measurements (height and neck > 0; waist > neck for men; waist + hip > neck for women).
Know the limits
Results depend on consistent measurement technique and are best used as a trend over time.
