A small mark must be made where the highest part of your head touches the wall and the length from that point can be measured using a measuring tape.įor hip circumference, continue to stand in the same relaxed position and using a measuring tape, measure the largest circumference below your waistline. For height measurements, you must take your footwear off and stand straight against a wall with your feet together. It is important to measure the height as well as hip circumference correctly for this purpose. So now you can calculate the percentage of fat in your body using the BAI formula īAI= Hip circumference (cm)/Height (m) 1.5 – 18 BAI uses height and hip circumference to determine percentage body fat. “Body Adiposity Index (BAI)” has thus been conceptualized. These drawbacks have led scientists and researchers to look for a more reliable anthropometric calculation. Since all diet prescriptions, counseling sessions, and fitness advises are based on BMI, its limitations have been a concern for some time now. This is commonly experienced by athletes and body builders. Sometimes, BMI can falsely classify individuals with high bone weight or increased muscle mass as overweight or obese. However, height and weight alone cannot determine body fat, muscle mass, and bone weight. This method has been employed all across the globe for a long time now. Height and weight measures are used to determine if an individual is underweight, normal, overweight, or obese.
