📏Waist-to-Hip Ratio

What is Waist-to-Hip Ratio?

▾

Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) compares the circumference of the waist to the hips. High WHR indicates central (abdominal/visceral) obesity, which is more strongly associated with cardiovascular disease and metabolic syndrome than peripheral fat.

Calkulon makes complex calculations simple — built for students and everyday problem-solvers.

How to Waist-to-Hip Ratio

▾
  1. 1WHR = Waist circumference / Hip circumference
  2. 2Measure waist at narrowest point (navel level)
  3. 3Measure hips at widest point of buttocks
  4. 4WHO thresholds: men > 0.90 = high risk; women > 0.85 = high risk

Worked Examples

▾
Example 1
Given:Male: waist 92cm · hip 100cm
Výsledok:WHR = 0.92 → high risk

Above 0.90 threshold for men

Did you know?

WHR is a stronger predictor of heart attack risk than BMI. A landmark INTERHEART study (52 countries, 27,000 people) found WHR predicted 20% of heart attack risk independently of all other factors.
