About This Ideal Weight Calculator

This ideal weight calculator estimates a healthy weight range for your height, using established formulas and adjusting for biological sex and body frame. It gives a target range rather than a single number, since healthy weight varies between people.

This is general information only, not medical advice. Ideal weight formulas don't account for muscle mass or body composition, so very muscular people may sit above the range while still being healthy. Talk to your GP for personalised guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is ideal weight estimated?+
It uses height-based formulas, adjusted for sex and frame size, to suggest a healthy weight range rather than one exact figure.
Is ideal weight the same as a healthy weight?+
Roughly. Like BMI, these formulas are a guide. Body composition, fitness and health markers matter more than a single number.
Why might I be above the range but still healthy?+
Muscle is denser than fat, so athletic or muscular people can weigh more than the formula suggests while being perfectly healthy.
