About Army Body Fat

This calculator uses the Army Body Composition Programs one-site circumference-based tape method (June 2023) to estimate body fat percentage. It requires waist measurement at the belly button and weight, rounded to the nearest 0.5 inch and pound. Soldiers scoring 540+ on the ACFT are exempt from this assessment.

Body Fat Tips

  • Measure Accurately: Take 3 waist measurements and average them.
  • Stand Upright: Ensure arms are relaxed during measurement.
  • Exercise Regularly: Combine cardio and strength training to reduce body fat.
