Weight to Height Charts for Women and Men
by Renee Kennedy


 


In order to determine if you are overweight, underweight or just right, you first need to know your frame size. Frame sizes come in three different categories: small, medium, and large. To determine your frame size:


Measure your elbow breadth


  1. Put your arm straight out in front of you, bend your arm at the elbow with your fingers pointing straight up. (Your arm should be at a 90 degree angle to your body.)

  2. Turn your wrist so that the palm of your hand is facing your body. (You should be able to see your palm.)

  3. Put your thumb and fore finger of your other hand on the two bones on the outside of your elbow. Measure this distance in inches.

  4. Input this information here - Frame Calculator.

 


Weight to Height Charts The information in the weight to height charts found on the NutriCounter web site is from The Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (1983 statistics). These charts are widely used by experts in the medical field. However, other experts criticize these statistics based on the fact that the participants in the study were primarily white, middle class people. Also, the validity of the statistics is questionable due to inconsistent research methods.

If you do decide to use these tables, use them with a little common sense - every person is different and weight is greatly affected by age, musculature, mobility, metabolism and a host of other factors. (These charts look like they are for young, energetic, active individuals.)

On a more positive note, these charts make for excellent printing on an 8x11 sheet of paper!
