Standard weight measurement method

Who calculation method: male: (height cm-80)×70%= standard weight; Female: (height cm-70)×60%= standard weight; Standard weight plus or minus 10% is normal weight; Standard weight plus or minus 10%~20% overweight or underweight; More than 20% of the standard weight is obese or underweight.

Overweight calculation formula: Overweight% = [(actual weight-ideal weight)/(ideal weight) ]× 100%.

Extended data

Standard weight is one of the important signs to reflect and measure a person's health. Being too fat and too thin is not good for your health, nor will it give you a sense of bodybuilding. A large number of statistical data of different body types show that the ideal and simple index reflecting normal weight can be expressed by the relationship between height and weight.

When comparing and analyzing the influence of a person's weight on the health of people with different heights, the body mass index value is a neutral and reliable indicator.

The "standard" of standard weight is not exactly the same in different countries. The standard weight of different age groups in a country is usually obtained through a large national sample survey. According to people's age and height, the approximate range of people's weight at all ages is calculated, and its upper and lower limits are stipulated.
