Healthy Body Weight Checker
Healthy body weight is calculated using the Hamwi formula which was originally proposed in the 1960's as a simple tool for quickly estimating desirable body weight. The Hamwi formula is still often times used by professionals to calculate ideal body weight.
* The formula for men allows 106 lbs. for the first 5 feet and 6 lbs. for each inch over 5 feet. For small framed individuals, subtract 10%. For large framed individuals, add 10%
* The formula for women allows 100 lbs. for the first 5 feet and 5 lbs. for each inch over 5 feet. For small framed individuals, subtract 10%. For large framed individuals, add 10%.
These formulas calculate the weight at which an individual has the lowest risk for developing medical complications of any kind. Therefore, it is important to maintain a healthy body weight, maintain a fitness program, and eat a healthy diet for preventing obesity-associated diseases.
