Physical Fitness Checker — BMI, Height & Chest

Yours. Every force, rank and intake year sets different minimums, so the checker compares your measurements against the exact figures printed in your own advertisement — you copy the required height, inflated chest and chest expansion from the notice into the requirement fields and it gives a pass or fail with the exact margin in centimeters.

BMI = weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Below 18.5 reads as underweight, 18.5–24.9 as healthy weight, 25–29.9 as overweight and 30+ as obese. It is the screening number most medical boards start from — but it cannot tell muscle from fat, so a muscular applicant can legitimately read high.

The tape sits at nipple level under the armpits. Take the normal quiet breath reading first, then a full maximal inhale and take the inflated reading. Expansion is the difference between the two — commonly a 2–5 cm minimum applies, but the advertisement's own figure is what counts. Practise the breathing pattern; it measurably improves the reading.

No. Every calculation runs inside your browser the moment you type, nothing is transmitted and nothing is saved — close the tab and the numbers are gone. The tool also works fully offline once the site is loaded, so you can re-check figures anywhere, including at the recruitment venue.
