Understanding the indices

BMI (Body Mass Index) — weight / height². Simple but does not account for muscle mass.
Ponderal Index (Corpulence Index) — weight / height³. More accurate for very tall or short individuals.
WHR (Waist-to-Hip Ratio) — waist ÷ hip. Risk threshold: >0.90 (men), >0.85 (women).
WHtR (Waist-to-Height Ratio) — waist ÷ height. Values above 0.5 indicate elevated cardiovascular risk.
Navy body fat method — uses circumference measurements. Accuracy ±3–4% vs DEXA.
