Army Body Fat Calculator — FAQs

How accurate is the Navy method?

±3–4% for most people — good enough to track trends. DEXA is the reference standard; calipers and bioimpedance sit in between.

Healthy body fat ranges?

Men ~10–20%, women ~18–28%. Athletes run lower; essential fat is ~3% men, ~12% women — below that is dangerous.
