What Is BMI?
BMI (Body Mass Index) is a popular method to determine if your weight is healthy for your height.
BMI Formula:
BMI = Weight (kg) / Height² (m²)
Used For:
- General weight classification
- Health risk assessment
- Basic fitness tracking
What Is BAI?
BAI (Body Adiposity Index) estimates your body fat percentage based on height and hip circumference — not weight.
BAI Formula:
BAI = (Hip circumference in cm / Height in m^1.5) – 18
Used For:
- Understanding body fat distribution
- More accurate results for muscular or lean bodies
- Complementary to BMI
Why BAI? BAI provides better fat percentage estimates, especially for South Asians with higher visceral fat risk despite normal BMI.
