BMI Calculator

BMI Calculator - Body Mass Index

The BMI calculator is a useful tool that measures whether you are overweight, underweight, or just right. Your weight alone is not enough to tell, as a tall, skinny man is likely to weigh more an overweight woman who is short and slim. The body mass index, or BMI is a solution to this problem by determining a proportion from your weight height which gives you an exact number. This number will fit into a specific category in the scale of BMI ranges that can be described as underweight normal, overweight, and obese.

To calculate how much body weight you weigh on your own, and what the number is for you, you'll need to be aware of:

  • How do I calculate BMI.
  • What's the normal BMI.
  • What the various BMI ranges are.

How do I calculate BMI

Let's begin by examining the calculation:

  1. You can divide the weight (in kgs) with your measurement (in feet).
  2. Divide the answer by your height and again to determine your BMI.

So the body mass index formula is as the following:

BMI = weight / height2.

Normal BMI

Our BMI calculator makes it a piece of cake for you to find your exact BMI. Be aware that BMI is a rough estimation. The result can be somewhat confusing for people who are muscly (such as body builders), or for those who have lost significant amounts of muscle (such those who are elderly).

If you're unsure what your level of fitness is within the "normal" range of muscle mass, it is recommended to use one of our more accurate calculators. Calculators for body fat is able to zero-in on your percentage of body fat. In addition, using our calculator to calculate lean mass can show you what you'd weigh if you didn't have any fat.

BMI ranges

There are five primary variations within the BMI scale:

  • The term "underweight" means less than 18.5
  • Normal weight equals 18.5 - 24.9
  • Overweight = 25 - 29.9
  • Obesity = 30 - 35
  • Severe Obesity = 35 and more

It's called the BMI Prime BMI Prime is clever adaptation to our BMI calculator. It's a decimal value where 1.0 is the upper end of what is known as the "normal BMI" range. It's an extremely simple method to know if you're overweight or not. If you're BMI Prime is greater than 1, then you've got a bit of weight to lose.

Utilizing our calculator to calculate the Body Mass Index

In the upper right-hand corner of the BMI calculator, there are fields for users to input their body weight and height. Enter these numbers and you'll have your BMI in addition to your BMI Prime (see above) and a short message that will tell you which is the range that you fall into.

If you're overweight and want to know what amount you'll have to shed to be in your healthyrange then you can also do it. Place your height and weight in the boxes as they are, then type "0.9" into the BMI Prime box. The weight you put in and BMI will be adjusted automatically.

Tip: If the height of your box changes when you switch boxes, you'll have to make sure you lock it. Go to the right side of the box. Click the lock icon. This will secure the figure while you alter the values in other boxes. This is... the case unless you're planning to grow taller!

Other aspects

If you're looking to find out whether your metabolism is working for you on the road to getting to a healthy weight, check out using our calculator for basal metabolic rates (or its variant with the Harris-Benedict equation). We often hear about things raising or lowering our metabolism (which one is skipping breakfast? does again?) But we're not hearing much about tracking the changes. This calculator will do that for.

Your basal metabolic level is the rate at which you are able to measure your body's metabolism once you first wake up in the morning. That is when you are the most reliable time of the day to assess your metabolism because the day's heat hasn't had the chance to get you warm yet!

Once you know how to calculate BMI, the next sensible figure to look up is your ideal weight. Utilize this ideal tool to find it out quickly.

Parts per Million by Weight in Water The concentration of gas in ppm that is present in water . It's expressed in terms of weight. To measure the concentration using metric units an estimation of density in water is required. The density of pure water can be measured as 1000.0000 kilograms per meter 3. at temperatures of 3.98degC and the normal atmospheric pressure at the time of 1969. This was the prior standard definition for the kilogram. The concept of "kilo" is now defined as being similar to the mass of the prototype that was utilized for international use of the kilogram. High-purity water (VSMOW) in the case of temperatures that are 4 degrees Celsius (IPTS-68) and normal atmospheric pressure has at an average density of 999.9750 kg/m 3. . [5] The density of water can be affected by pressure, temperature as well as impurities i.e. gases that are dissolving and saltiness of the water. A shocking concentration in gasses which are dissolved into the w...
