BMI meaning

It stands for body mass index of a person. This is a popular and effective way of classifying people of different weights appropriately.

The body mass index value is derived from that person's mass (weight) and height. Body mass index is given by the square of height divided by body mass. It is usually expressed in kilograms per meter square (kg/m). Here, kilogram is the unit of weight and meter is the unit of height.

BMI normal range | What is a normal BMI?

A BMI greater than 25 and less than 20 is often associated with less health and fitness. The best BMI range is considered to be between 20-25. However, it is observed that the ideal range varies with the race. It was observed that a BMI that may be good for Europeans is unhealthy for Asians.

It should be noted that body mass index also has several limitations. When applied to people with short stature, abdominal obesity or a lot of muscle mass, the body mass index is less useful.

How is BMI calculated? formula for bmi

The formula to calculate a person's body mass index is simple. One only needs to know their body weight and height. The formula to calculate a person's body mass index is by dividing the person's mass in kilograms by the square of the person's height in meters.

BMI Calculator = Body Mass (Kilograms) / Height² (Meters)

If the person is using pounds and inches to calculate body mass index then a conversion factor of 703 should be applied.

BMI Formula = Body Mass (pounds) / Height² (inches) × 703

The World Health Organization (WHO) considers a BMI of less than 18.5 to be underweight and malnourished, while a BMI of over 25 is considered overweight. Having a body mass index above 30 means that a person actually suggests poor eating and exercise habits and the person is considered obese.

Another important statistic related to BMI or body mass index is the BMI prime. BMI refers to the ratio of the prime body mass index (BMI) to the upper limit of a healthy weight. Generally, a BMI score between 0.74-1.00 is considered healthy.
