Questions fréquentes

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.

Les mathématiques derrière cette calculatrice, écrites pour que vous puissiez vérifier le résultat.

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
