Ideal Waist to Hip Ratio Calculator

Waist-Hip Ratio is the measurement of the circumference of your waist divided by the circumference of your hips. It is used to assess body fat distribution and potential health risks.

A higher waist-hip ratio may indicate a higher risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and other health problems related to obesity.

For men, a waist-hip ratio of 0.90 or lower is considered healthy.

For women, a waist-hip ratio of 0.80 or lower is considered healthy.

Divide the circumference of your waist by the circumference of your hips. The result is your Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR).

Yes, Waist-Hip Ratio can be an indicator of obesity, especially abdominal obesity, which is associated with greater health risks.

For men, a WHR above 0.90 and for women, a WHR above 0.85 are considered high-risk values for health problems related to fat distribution.

A healthy waist-hip ratio for men is less than 0.90, and for women, less than 0.80.

Yes, changes in diet, exercise, and lifestyle can influence your waist and hip measurements, thus altering your WHR.

Yes, WHR can be more accurate than BMI for assessing body fat distribution and the risk of obesity-related health problems.
