Advanced Body Metrics
WHR, WHtR, and Body Roundness Index — a complete picture of your body composition beyond BMI.
Measure at navel level
Measure at widest point
At navel level, tape snug but not compressing. Breathe normally.
Widest part of hips/buttocks, feet together, tape level.
Men < 0.90 · Women < 0.80
Keep waist < half your height
Optimal: 3.41 – 4.45
WHR assesses abdominal fat distribution — a key indicator for heart disease and diabetes.
WHtR is a simple predictor of metabolic syndrome and overall health status.
BRI estimates internal fat around organs, linked to metabolic diseases.
Excellent Results!
Your measurements indicate low health risk. Continue your healthy lifestyle — regular exercise, balanced nutrition, and routine health check-ups will maintain these excellent metrics.
📚 Understanding These Metrics
📊 Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR)
WHR measures fat distribution by comparing waist and hip circumference. People who carry weight around the waist (apple-shaped) face higher cardiovascular and diabetes risk than those who carry it around the hips (pear-shaped).
📏 Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR)
The "0.5 rule": keep your waist circumference below half your height. WHtR is considered more predictive of cardiovascular risk than BMI, especially across different ages and ethnic groups.
🎯 Body Roundness Index (BRI)
BRI estimates body shape and visceral fat using height and waist circumference. Visceral fat is strongly linked to metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and chronic inflammation.
