The U.S. Navy body fat formula uses circumference measurements to estimate fat percentage. Here's how to measure accurately:
Men: BF% = 495 / (1.0324 − 0.19077×log₁₀(waist−neck) + 0.15456×log₁₀(height)) − 450
Women: BF% = 495 / (1.29579 − 0.35004×log₁₀(waist+hip−neck) + 0.22100×log₁₀(height)) − 450
Note: all measurements must be in inches for the formula to work correctly.
