Ideal Weight by Formula
???? Why multiple formulas? Each formula was developed differently (mostly for medication dosing, not fitness goals), so they give a range rather than one “correct” number. Your healthy weight range may differ based on muscle mass, frame size, and overall health markers like
BMI and body composition.
⚠️ These formulas were originally developed for medical dosing purposes and provide rough estimates only. A healthy weight depends on many factors beyond height — body composition, muscle mass, and overall health matter more than any single number.
