How the Body Type Calculator Works
This calculator estimates your body type using your BMI and waist-to-hip ratio:
- BMI: BMI = weight(kg) ÷ (height(m)²)
- Waist-to-Hip Ratio: WHR = waist(cm) ÷ hip(cm)
- Body Type Classification:
- Ectomorph: BMI < 18.5 or low WHR
- Mesomorph: BMI 18.5-24.9 or moderate WHR
- Endomorph: BMI ≥ 25 or high WHR
Body Type Calculator — Determine Your Body Type and BMI Instantly
Use our free Body Type Calculator to estimate your body type (Ectomorph, Mesomorph, or Endomorph) and calculate your BMI (Body Mass Index).

This tool is perfect for fitness enthusiasts, nutritionists, and anyone wanting a better understanding of their body composition.
How the Body Type Calculator Works
The calculator uses a combination of BMI and Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR) to estimate your body type:
- BMI: weight in kg ÷ (height in meters)2
- Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR): waist circumference ÷ hip circumference
- Body Type Classification:
- Ectomorph: BMI < 18.5 or WHR below threshold (0.75 for females, 0.85 for males)
- Mesomorph: BMI 18.5–24.9 or WHR within normal range (0.75–0.85 for females, 0.85–0.95 for males)
- Endomorph: BMI ≥ 25 or WHR above normal range
Formulas and thresholds are based on CDC BMI guidelines and WHO waist-to-hip ratio standards.
