WHR Health Risk Classifications (WHO)
| Risk Level | Male WHR | Female WHR |
|---|---|---|
| Low Risk | <0.90 | <0.80 |
| Moderate Risk | 0.90–0.99 | 0.80–0.84 |
| High Risk | ≥1.00 | ≥0.85 |
WHR predicts cardiovascular risk better than BMI because abdominal fat (apple shape) is metabolically more dangerous than fat distributed around the hips and thighs (pear shape).
