Frequently Asked Questions
Which ideal weight formula is best?
No single formula is perfect. The Robinson formula (1983) is generally considered the most balanced. The BMI-based range (18.5-24.9) is the broadest and most used by healthcare providers. Your ideal weight depends on many individual factors.
Does ideal weight account for muscle?
No. All formulas are based on height and sex only. Athletes and muscular individuals will often weigh more than the calculated "ideal" weight while being perfectly healthy. Body fat percentage is a better metric for these individuals.
