How to calculate the ideal weight?
The World Health Organization ( WHO) proposed the body mass index as a way to get the ideal weight of a person.
This index would be as follows:
| |
Body weight (kg) |
BMI ( Body mass index) = |
---------------------------- |
| |
Square of height (m) |
|
According to this measurement, we would have the following results:
- Less than 30 = Obese.
- Between 25 and 30 = Over ideal weight.
- Between 20 and 24 = Peso ideal Ideal weight
For example, for a person about 1 '75 m tall , weighting 83 kg, we should do the following calculations:
83 |
|
----------------- = |
27,10 BMI ( Body mass index) |
1,75 x 1,75 |
|
|
The person has a BMI of 27, 10, so his/ her weight is above the ideal weight.
