Two types of fat distribution (as far as obesity goes) are Android Obesity and Gynoid Obesity. Android is often thought of as "apple-shaped" where fat is carried above the waist (think beer gut) whereas Gynoid obesity is thought of as "pear-shaped" and fat is carried below the waist. Android is more common in men and Gynoid is more common in women. Of the two, Android poses the greatest threat because the adipose (fat) tissue builds up around the vital organs and makes you more susceptible to a wide range of diseases.

Adipose tissue accumulation is also known as body fat distribution. For people with android (apple-shaped) distribution, fat is centered around the abdominal area. This leads to an increased risk for coronary artery disease, stroke, diabetes, and high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It is also an indicator for obesity. Gynoid (pear-shaped) distribution is associated with body fat that accumulates around the hip and thigh region. Certain body fat distributions are easily determined by measuring the waist-to-hip ratio, that is the circumference of the waist divided by the circumference of the hips. Android fat distribution is defined as a ratio greater than 1.0 for men and 0.8 for women.
