At a time when weight is becoming a concern for many, for health, aesthetic reasons, or for an obsession, everyone is searching for the answer to one question: "Is my weight perfect?"
Unfortunately, there is no simple answer to this question. Because several factors control weight, because it is related to age, body mass index, waist circumference, and even height. All of them are complicated mathematical operations, some of which are calculated according to weight and height, others according to weight and body mass index, some of which combine them all and add to them the waist size.
Because it is a complex maze that includes many calculations, we will try to display it in the most common way and in the simplest possible way.
Weight and determine body mass index
The BMI measures the relationship between height and weight and determines the ideal weight for a person. Weight is measured in kilograms and length in meters: (weight / length in meters x length in meters).
If your BMI is between 18.5 and 25, then your weight is ideal.
If the index is less than 18.5, this means that you are suffering from thinness.
And if it is between 25 and 29.9, this means that you suffer from slight obesity.
The talk of life-threatening obesity begins when the BMI exceeds 40.
Noting that these numbers do not apply to athletes; Because they score high, not because of fat accumulation, but because of muscle.
Weight by height
We will not get you into the maze of calculations related to height and weight. So we will display the ideal weight according to the length of each person.
Height 1.42: the ideal weight is from 39 to 40 kg, obesity is 55 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 36.
Height 1.50 to 1.55: the ideal weight is 50 to 58 kg, obesity 70 kg, and skinniness when the weight is less than 46 kg.
Height 1.56 to 1.58: ideal weight 51 kg to 64 kg, obesity 77 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 48 kg.
Height: 1.60: the ideal weight is from 52 to 56 kg, obesity 78 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 49 kg.
Height 1.62: ideal weight from 53 to 66 kg, obesity 79 kg, and thinness when weight is less than 50 kg.
Height: 1.64: the ideal weight is 54 to 67 kg, obesity is 80 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 51.
Height 1.66: the ideal weight is 55 to 69 kg, obesity 83 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 52 kg.
Height 1.68: the ideal weight is 56 to 71 kg, obesity is 85 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 53 kg.
Height 1.70: the ideal weight is from 58 to 73 kg, obesity 88 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 54 kg.
Height 1.72: the ideal weight is 59 to 74 kg, obesity 89 kg, and thinness begins when the weight is less than 55 kg.
Height 1.74: the ideal weight is 60 to 75 kg, obesity 90 kg, and skinniness begins when the weight is less than 56 kg.
Height 1.76: the ideal weight is 62 to 77 kg, obesity 92 kg, and thinness begins when the weight is less than 58 kg.
Height 1.78: the ideal weight is 64 to 79 kg, obesity 95 kg, and skinniness begins when the weight is less than 60 kg.
Height 1.80: the ideal weight is 65 to 80 kg, obesity is 96 kg, and thinness begins when the weight is less than 62 kg.
Height 1.82: the ideal weight is from 66 to 82 kg, obesity 98 kg, and thinness begins when the weight is less than 63 kg.
Height 1.84: the ideal weight is from 67 to 84 kg, obesity 101 kg, and thinness when the weight is less than 64 kg.
Height 1.86: the ideal weight is 86 to 96 kg, obesity is 103 kg, and skinniness is when the weight is less than 65 kg.
Height 1.88: the ideal weight is 71 to 88 kg, obesity is 106 kg, and skinniness is when the weight is less than 68 kg.
Height 1.90: the ideal weight is from 73 to 93 kg, obesity is 108 kg, and skinniness is when the weight is less than 69 kg.
Weight according to the waist circumference
There are several ways to find the ideal weight, as mentioned above, and measuring the waist circumference is one of them. The ideal waist circumference for a man is from 90 to 94 cm. As for the circumference that exceeds 94 to 102 cm, this is evidence of obesity, and more than 120, this means excessive obesity. The circumference that is less than 90 cm is evidence of thinness.
To find out which box is located in a more accurate way, all you have to do is make sure that the size of the waist circumference is less than half of your height, and in case this is your ideal weight.
For example, a man whose length is 1.83; The waist circumference should be less than 92 cm. This method is the easiest, and can be easily replaced by a BMI measurement, which some find confusing and complex.
