Find a healthy weight range using BMI guidelines.
Healthy ranges
The BMI healthy range offers a simple way to estimate a weight span that's typically associated with lower health risks.
Assumptions
Uses the adult BMI range of 18.5-24.9 and assumes average body composition.
Use alongside body composition
Athletes or very muscular individuals may fall outside BMI norms. Combine this with body-fat estimates for context.
FAQ
What is a healthy weight for my height?
This healthy weight calculator estimates the weight range linked to a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 for your height. It gives a useful range, not a single perfect target.
Is healthy weight based only on BMI?
This page uses BMI guidelines, so the result is based on height and body weight. It does not directly measure body composition, frame size, or athletic build.
What is the difference between healthy weight and ideal weight?
Healthy weight usually refers to a broader BMI-based range, while ideal weight calculators compare multiple formulas that try to estimate a single reference point.
