A relative measure of body height to body weight, the
Body Mass Index (BMI) is used to help determine whether
a person is at a healthy weight, overweight or obese.
Individuals in a normal weight range usually have a
BMI landing somewhere between 19 and 25. People who are mildly to
moderately overweight (up to 40% above normal weight) have BMIs between
25 and 30. Obese individuals (more than 40% above normal weight) have
BMIs over 30.
Please Note: Since the BMI is only a
relative measurement of body weight to body height, it does not
discriminate between the more muscular body and the over-fat body types.
The BMI, therefore, should be used together with other body measurement
and composition assessments that determine the amount of body weight
composed of fat compared to fat-free (lean body) mass to determine how
fit an individual is.
