Häufig gestellte Fragen

What is a healthy waist-to-hip ratio?

For women, a ratio below 0.85 is considered low risk; for men, below 0.90 is low risk. Higher ratios indicate more abdominal fat.

Why is waist-to-hip ratio important?

It helps assess fat distribution. Excess abdominal fat is linked to higher risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.

Can I use inches instead of centimeters?

Yes, as long as both measurements use the same unit, the ratio is unitless and remains the same.

Formeln

Die Mathematik hinter diesem Rechner, aufgeschrieben, damit Sie das Ergebnis überprüfen können.

Waist-to-Hip Ratio

WHR = Waist circumference / Hip circumference

Divide the waist measurement by the hip measurement. Both should be in the same unit.

Example:

Input: Waist = 80 cm, Hip = 100 cm

Calculation: 80 / 100 = 0.80

Result: WHR = 0.80

Anwendungsfälle im Alltag

Wo diese Berechnung im täglichen Leben vorkommt.

Health risk assessment

Used by health professionals to estimate risk of obesity-related conditions.

Example: A WHR of 0.95 for a man indicates higher risk.

Fitness tracking

Track changes in body shape over time to monitor progress.

Example: Compare WHR before and after a fitness program.

Body composition analysis

Provides a simple measure of fat distribution without complex equipment.

Example: Use alongside BMI for a fuller picture.
