Free Tool #02
Two numbers, honest reading.
BMI on its own is a rough screening tool. Pair it with waist-to-height ratio (below 0.5 is the target) and you get a much better picture of body composition than either alone.
Measure your waist at the level of your belly button, standing relaxed. Waist-to-height ratio (waist ÷ height) below 0.5 is the widely-cited healthy target for adults.

FAQ
Questions about this tool.
BMI is a screening number, not a diagnosis. It's poor at telling muscle from fat. That's why we pair it with waist-to-height, which is a much better predictor of metabolic risk.
