This body fat percentage calculator estimates your body fat from your weight, height, age and sex, using the Deurenberg formula. Everything is calculated instantly in your browser.

How the estimate works

The formula combines your BMI with age and sex to approximate body fat percentage — useful for tracking trends over time, but not a substitute for methods like skinfold calipers or bioimpedance scales.

How accurate is this estimate?
It's approximate. The Deurenberg formula can be off by several percentage points compared to direct methods like skinfold calipers, bioelectrical impedance or DEXA scans, especially for athletes or people with atypical body composition.
Is this medical advice?
No. It's a quick, orientative estimate for general reference. Talk to a healthcare professional for an accurate assessment and any health decisions.
