Health & Fitness Calculators

Health numbers are most useful when you understand what they measure and what they leave out. These calculators estimate body mass index, basal metabolic rate, daily calorie needs, body fat percentage, ideal weight range, running pace and pregnancy due date using widely accepted formulas.

Each page explains how the result is calculated, how to read it and where it can mislead, and cites public health sources. The results are population-based estimates, not a diagnosis, so talk with a doctor or registered dietitian before making medical or major diet changes.

How to choose the right calculator

Understanding your body

BMI and body fat give two different views of body composition, and the ideal weight calculator puts them in context with height-based ranges.

Planning nutrition

Start with BMR to see what your body burns at rest, then the calorie calculator to add activity and set a gentle surplus or deficit.
