What is BMI?
Body Mass Index (BMI) is a widely used tool to estimate a person's body fat based on their weight and height. It provides a general understanding of whether an individual's weight is healthy or not. The formula for calculating BMI is as follows: BMI = weight (kg) / (height (m))^2. For those using pounds and inches, the formula is: BMI = (weight (lbs) / (height (in))^2) x 703.
Please note that BMI is a general indicator and may not accurately represent the health status of all individuals, especially athletes or those with a high muscle mass. It is always recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a comprehensive evaluation of your health.
