Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator

Body mass index (BMI) is a measure of body fat based on height and weight that applies to both adult men and women. BMI is recognized by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and The World Health Organization as the best standard to judge obesity. BMI is also one of the most accurate and widely used measurements to determine if extra pounds pose health risks.

According to the National Institute of Health (NIH), your BMI score means the following:

  • Underweight: below 18.5
  • Normal: 18.5 to 24.9
  • Overweight: 25 to 29.9
  • Obese: 30 to 39.9
  • Extremely obese: 40 and above

Ways to increase your BRM:
• Regular exercise, especially cardiovascular
• Increase your muscle to fat ratio
• Avoid Hunger. Depriving yourself of food for long stretches will cause a drop in metabolism. Instead eat smaller, more frequent meals
