About this calculator

What is the Body Fat Percentage Calculator?

The Body Fat Percentage Calculator estimates body fat percentage using the Navy formula or a BMI-based estimate based on measurements. The normal body fat percentage is 10–20% for men and 18–28% for women.

The calculator is completely free, works directly in the browser, and does not store personal data. All calculators on this site are based on up-to-date information.

Calculation Principle

Navy formula (male): 495 / (1.0324 − 0.19077×log(waist−neck) + 0.15456×log(height)) − 450

Enter your measurements into the calculator fields and press the calculate button – the result will be displayed immediately. You can try different values to compare various scenarios.

Practical Example

Man, waist 88 cm, neck 38 cm, height 178 cm → body fat ≈ 18.5% (normal range).

The result is an estimate – for accurate clinical measurements, consult a healthcare professional.

Purpose of the Calculator

The calculator is suitable for self-monitoring health, planning workouts, and general health literacy. Tracking values over time provides valuable information about changes in the body.

Remember that a single measurement result does not tell the whole story – what matters more is the direction and trend over multiple measurement periods.

Practical Tips

  • Always measure at the same time and in the same condition for comparability.
  • Waist circumference is a simpler tracking metric than body fat percentage – use both.
  • Aim for a healthy range of body fat percentage (men < 20%, women < 30%) before specific goals.
