Adult height and weight standards

At present, there is no unified height and weight standard for adults, and the more commonly used clinical standards are body mass index and ideal weight. 1. Body mass index (BMI): calculated as BMI = weight (kg)/height (m)², BMI is 18.5~23.9 for normal weight; BMI is 24.0~27.9 for overweight; ≥28 for obesity. If your height is 1.7 meters and weight is 60 kg, then BMI=60/1.7²=20.76, which is normal weight. 2. Ideal body weight: the calculation is more simple, ideal body weight (kg) = height (cm) – 105. ideal body weight ± 10% is normal weight, more than 10 ~ 19.9% for overweight, more than 20% of the ideal body weight for obesity. If an adult is 1.7 meters tall, the normal weight range is 58.5~71.5kg. Note that the above calculation method is only an estimate, as a reference.
