Body
Mass Index
Your
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a number that can tell you a great
deal about your health very quickly. Your BMI is a calculation
based upon your weight and height that tells you your body
composition, and correlates well with your body fat. In other
words, Body Mass Index (BMI) calculates body fat according
to the relationship of weight and height. A BMI less than
20 is considered to be a low BMI for most people. A low BMI
may indicate underweight and may be associated with health
problems for some people. A BMI of 20-25 is considered to
be good. It may indicate a healthy weight for most people.
A BMI of greater than 25 is considered to be high for most
people. This may indicate overweight or obesity and may increase
the risk of developing health problems.
Note:
if you are exactly 5 feet or 6 feet tall, put a 0 in the inches
box. The results will be wrong if you leave the inches box empty.
