Army Body Fat Calculator

About Army Body Fat Calculator

Army Body Fat Calculator uses a tape-style circumference estimate to calculate body fat percentage from height and body measurements. The result is then checked against age-based entry standards so you can see whether the current estimate fits the selected gender and age band.

How To Use It

Choose the measurement system and gender first, then enter the measurements used by the tape test.

• Select imperial or metric units and choose male or female.
• Enter age, height, neck, and waist measurements. Add hip measurement for female calculations.
• Click Calculate Army Body Fat to see the percentage and the matching Army entry threshold.
