How to calculate your BMI?

Body mass index is a medical tool that measures the ratio of your height to your weight to estimate the amount of body fat. The BMI is widely used to get an indication of your health conditions, whether you are underweight, overweight or obese.


Metric system

To calculate your bmi, you divide the weight in kilogram by the height in meters squared.


BMI (Metric system) = weight in kg / height in meters²

Example: You want to know your bmi score with a height of 1.80 meter and a weight of 72 kg. The bmi formula looks like this: 72 / 1.80² = 22.2 bmi score.


Imperial system

To calculate your bmi, you divide the weight in pounds by the height in inches squared and multiply by 703.


BMI (Imperial system) = 703 × weight in pounds / height in inches²

Example: You want to know your bmi score with a height of 70 inches and a weight of 154 pounds. The bmi formula looks like this: 154 / 70² = 22.1 bmi score.
