What is BMI?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple measurement that estimates whether your weight is appropriate for your height. It is commonly used to identify weight categories that may be associated with health risks.
BMI is a useful screening tool for most adults, but it does not directly measure body fat, muscle mass, or overall fitness.
How is BMI Calculated?
The BMI formula is:
BMI = Weight (kg) ÷ Height² (m²)
Example
- Weight: 70 kg
- Height: 1.70 m
Calculation:
70 ÷ (1.70 × 1.70) = 24.2
BMI = 24.2
BMI Categories

| 18.5 – 24.9 | Healthy Weight |
| 25.0 – 29.9 | Overweight |
| 30.0 and Above | Obesity |
