Army Body Composition Calculators

Every Army body-composition calculator on this site lives here, grouped by task: the current WHtR standard first, then the archived historical tools, then unit converters. Each tool is free, works in your browser, and explains its method.

The current Army standard is the Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) under Army Directive 2026-13, effective July 7, 2026. All previous assessment methods are archived here for reference only, each clearly labeled with the date it was rescinded.

Current standard — WHtR (July 2026+)
