Ideal Weight Formulas
Several formulas estimate ideal body weight. All use height in inches above 5 feet:
| Formula | Male | Female |
|---|---|---|
| Devine (1974) | 50 + 2.3 × (h″ − 60) | 45.5 + 2.3 × (h″ − 60) |
| Robinson (1983) | 52 + 1.9 × (h″ − 60) | 49 + 1.7 × (h″ − 60) |
| Miller (1983) | 56.2 + 1.41 × (h″ − 60) | 53.1 + 1.36 × (h″ − 60) |
| Hamwi (1964) | 48 + 2.7 × (h″ − 60) | 45.5 + 2.2 × (h″ − 60) |
Important Notes
- These are estimates based on population averages.
- They do not account for muscle mass, body composition, or ethnicity.
- A healthy weight range (BMI 18.5–24.9) is generally more useful than a single number.
