Waist-hip ratio or Waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) is the ratio of the circumference of the waist to that of the hips. It is calculated by measuring the smallest circumference of the natural waist, usually just above the belly button, and dividing by the hip circumference at its widest part of the buttocks or hip. The ratio is applied both to women and men.
For example, a person with a 32″ waist and 37″ hips has a waist-hip ratio of about 0.86.

It's not only the amount of body fat you have, but also where in your body the fat is stored that impacts on your health. Adults who store most of their body fat around their waists have an increased risk of high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke compared with those who have the same amount of body fat stored around their hips and thighs.

Measuring your waist-to-hip ratio is an easy way to see how much weight you are carrying around your abdomen as opposed to around your hips.
Measurement:
- Waist measurement with stomach relaxed, measure waist at its narrowest point which normally at your navel or belly-button.
- Hip measurement during standing, measure hips at widest point or around the bony prominence.

WHR for Male
0.95 or lower - Low health risk
0.96 to 1.0 - Moderate risk
1.0 or higher - High risk

WHR for Female
0.80 or lower - Low health risk
0.81 to 0.84 - Moderate risk
0.85 or higher - High risk
