How this works

This uses the US Navy circumference method, which estimates body fat from your waist, neck, and (for women) hip measurements relative to your height. It's a widely-used field estimate, not as precise as a DEXA scan or body-fat caliper test, but doesn't require any special equipment -- just a tape measure. Measure waist at the navel and neck just below the larynx for the most consistent results.
