While still a better representation than bmi, no algorithm is ever going to accurately measure fat content, but the army approximates this way
Not based on ar 600-9 at all, not to mention that there is no use of centimeters in calculating body fat. Only reason I gave it one star is because I can't give zero.
Idk seems right for me and my mom but my bf is fat and it says his is only 5.7% even he disagrees with that
I work out constantly andI know I'm below 20% its accurate if you don't have allot of muscle
Include age, service break down and specific age group bf requirements. Maybe turn results red after they are posted and failed green if they pass.
Please take off cm , people will get confused, they will think it's not correct result. People are dumb you will be surprised how many people said this app is not good because they been using the cm measurement. They just too dumb to click on the cm to change to inches.
every weight in I have done in the army your weight is required! its all done in inches not cm. these are no longer the standards they changed in 2007
It does what it says. The good news is that it's more accurate than a simple BMI as it accounts that muscle weighs more than fat.
This is not correct and built off 600-9. App needs work.
It would be nice if you could select your branch of service and use the criteria for the particular banch of service. Especially Airforce!
So easy a caveman could do it. Wish it let me put in age and showed me on line with min/max
This app shows three 2007 standards, 8 years late!
Works just fine was on the army fat boy plan cause of an injury and is accurate
I've use this app for at least a hundred Soldiers and it has always been to 600-9 standard. A tip for some of theese hooahs, change the default of cm's to inches.
I am a competitive cyclist and runner week works out with weights also 5 or 6 days a week. Caliper test I am just under 12% this has me at 46%.
The only thing it really needs is to tell you what the max is and to do that it needs to ask age
This app is extremely accurate. It actually gives the same percentage the recruiter stations give.
those that say this doesn't work are in denial you are FAT, hit the gym hard and maybe you can meet the ARMY WAY HOOAH!!
Crap, from an army perspective, go look somewhere else for something just a little more accurate
Would be nice to be able save your information and edit it rather than having to reenter it every time.
I would have to agree that this app is accurate and your weight is not a factor in body fat calculation.
Confused as to why it said "negative" 17.5%, but I guess good app.
I'm 14% body fat nd this app told me that I'm 70% body fat I laugh soo hard.
I'm in the army and this is a great app. Best I've found yet.
Your weight has no effect on the Army tape test.
It does nnot allow u to enter age for a soldier so u have to guess the allowed BF
My height doesn't change hate having to re-input Neck size, hip size, inches. Doesn't save anything.Why no weight? Age over 40?
Unit calculations r wrong if u input one in cm, other one in inches even though selecting/showing it right.
