Read MoreWe’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) Calculator, embedded right here on Total Force Hub. Whether you’re an Airman or Guardian, this handy tool will help you keep track of your health and readiness in no time.
Important Notice
✈️ The Air Force has announced new PT test changes starting in 2026. Waist-to-Height Ratio (WHtR) remains a key measure, but updated standards will affect how Airmen are scored.
This tool will be updated with the new measurement standards and scoring tables soon

Why the Waist-to-Height Ratio Matters
The Waist-to-Height Ratio is a simple yet powerful way to measure fat distribution around your midsection. Research shows that excess abdominal fat can raise the risk of various health issues. In response, both the Air and Space Forces have rolled out the Waist-to-Height Ratio Body Composition Program (BCP), with assessments starting in April 2023.
Key points to remember about the new policy:
-
💡 WHtR is separate from the DAF Physical Fitness Assessment.
-
🏆 It specifically targets abdominal fat distribution, a critical marker for overall health.
-
📅 Airmen and Guardians will measure their waist, then divide by their height to get their WHtR.
