Body fat percentage is often a better marker of health than simple weight. It distinguishes between muscle mass and adipose tissue, providing a clearer picture of your body composition.

The U.S. Navy Method

This method is one of the most accurate ways to estimate body fat without expensive equipment. It relies on the relationship between your height and the circumference of your waist and neck (and hips for women).
