What is the meaning of standard weight

Weight is one of the important indicators that reflects and measures a person's health status. Being too fat or too thin is not good for your health, nor does it give people a sense of fitness. A large amount of statistical data on different body types shows that a more ideal and simple index reflecting normal weight can be expressed by the relationship between height and weight.

Calculation method recommended by the World Health Organization:

Male: (height cm-80) × 70﹪ = standard weight

Female: (height cm-70) × 60﹪ = standard weight

Standard weight plus or minus 10% is normal weight

A standard weight of plus or minus 10%~20% is overweight or underweight

Standard weight plus or minus 20% or more is obese or underweight

Overweight calculation formula

Overweight% = (actual weight - ideal weight) / (ideal weight)

According to statistics, about 42% of people feel that they are too fat and need to lose weight. Before engaging in a real weight loss plan, it is best to have a concept of your ideal weight. If you ask too much of yourself, it will often cause adverse effects on the psychological level.

Based on different body mass indexes, you can see whether your weight is ideal.
