Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the Navy method?
It's a reasonable estimate for most people (typically within a few percentage points) but is less precise than DEXA scans or calipers.
Where do I measure my waist?
At the narrowest point for men, or at the widest point around the navel for women, following standard Navy method guidance.
Is this medical advice?
