How to use the Ideal Weight calculator

These formulas were developed for clinical drug dosing, not as personal goals. They work best for heights between about 5 ft and 6 ft 6 in and ignore frame size and muscle mass.

Formula

Each formula starts from a base weight at 5 ft (60 in) and adds a fixed amount per inch above that. For example Devine (men): 50 kg + 2.3 kg per inch over 5 ft.
