Body Mass Index (BMI)
Body mass index is used to determine whether a person is at their ideal body weight. It describes body weight relative to a person’s height. While it does not actually measure a person’s percentage of body fat, it is a useful tool to estimate a healthy body weight based on how tall a person is.
As it is a quick and easy measurement to obtain, it is widely used to identify obesity problems. To calculate your BMI simply divide your weight by the square of your height.
For example if you are 162cm tall and weigh 70 kg, your BMI would be 27 which would classify you as ‘overweight’. To calculate and interpret your BMI, use our handy calculator and table below.
