Ideal body weight (IBW) formulas
Ideal weight is a concept that defines one’s healthy level of body weight. Whilst there are several formulas available, all of these are estimates that can be used on generic populations, based on variables such as gender, height or age.
Peterson’s formula (2016)
The latest published ideal weight formula is that of Peterson et al. whose accuracy was evaluated through theoretical and empirical means.
Ideal Weight (kg) = 2.2 x BMItarget + 3.5 x BMItarget x (Height (m) - 1.5 m)
Ideal Weight (lb) = (5 x BMItarget ) + (BMItarget / 5)) x (Height (in) - 60 in)
R. Miller’s formula (1983)
Ideal Weight (men) = 56.2 kg + 1.41 kg per inch over 5 feet
Ideal Weight (women) =53.1 kg + 1.36 kg per inch over 5 feet
J.D. Robinson’s equation (1983)
Ideal Weight (men) = 52 kg + 1.9 kg per inch over 5 feet
Ideal Weight (women) = 49 kg + 1.7 kg per inch over 5 feet
J. Devine’s equation (1974)
Ideal Weight (men) = 50.0 kg + 2.3 kg per inch over 5 feet
Ideal Weight (women) = 45.5 kg + 2.3 kg per inch over 5 feet
J. Hamwi’s formula (1964)
Ideal Weight (men) = 48.0 kg + 2.7 kg per inch over 5 feet
Ideal Weight (women) = 45.5 kg + 2.2 kg per inch over 5 feet
IBW estimation based on the BMI healthy range
IBW min = 18.5 x BMI
IBW max = 25 x BMI
