Enter Gender, Age and Height ft in — height Feet and the remaining scenario settings to review ideal weight with this tool. The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets.
Result = the equation or estimation model selected in this calculator, applied to the entered measurements. A numerical check does not establish clinical validity; review the method and limitations.The calculation links Gender, Age and Height ft in — height Feet to ideal weight. The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets. An equation can change the result even when height remains fixed.
Enter Gender, Age and Height ft in — height Feet and the remaining scenario settings to review ideal weight with this tool. The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets.
Compare named height-based reference-weight equations. Use differences between equations to understand that there is no single formula-defined ideal for every person.
The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets. An equation can change the result even when height remains fixed.
Prepare Gender, Age, Height ft in — height Feet, Height ft in, Frame size and Method. Enter height using the requested system and retain the equation name when recording a result.
The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets. An equation can change the result even when height remains fixed. Body composition, age, pregnancy and individual health are not resolved by these references. Do not treat the result as a prescribed weight.
Use the full settings in the worked-example table. They produce Ideal Weight: 156 lbs. Compare the method and units as well as the displayed number.
The displayed relationship is Result = the equation or estimation model selected in this calculator, applied to the entered measurements. A numerical check does not establish clinical validity; review the method and limitations. Enter height using the requested system and retain the equation name when recording a result.
Body composition, age, pregnancy and individual health are not resolved by these references. Do not treat the result as a prescribed weight. For personal care, discuss the measurements and method with a qualified clinician.
Worked ideal weight calculator example. Set Gender = Male; Age = 30; Height ft in — height Feet = 5; Height ft in = 9; Frame size = Medium; Method = Devine Formula. The corresponding output is Ideal Weight: 156 lbs. The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets.

| Field | Example value | Entry check |
|---|---|---|
| Gender | Male | Use the option required by the selected estimation model. |
| Age | 30 | Use the stated unit and the measurement required by this model. |
| Height ft in — height Feet | 5 | Keep feet and any inch remainder in their separate fields. |
| Height ft in | 9 | Keep feet and any inch remainder in their separate fields. |
| Frame size | Medium | Use the stated unit and the measurement required by this model. |
| Method | Devine Formula | Select the method before interpreting the result; different modes answer different questions. |
Relationship used for this example: Result = the equation or estimation model selected in this calculator, applied to the entered measurements. A numerical check does not establish clinical validity; review the method and limitations.
The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets. An equation can change the result even when height remains fixed.
| Output | Displayed result |

| Ideal Weight | 156 lbs |
With these settings, ideal weight is 156 lbs. Use the same units and calculation mode when reproducing this example.
The figures are outputs of the selected equations, rather than personal health targets. An equation can change the result even when height remains fixed. Body composition, age, pregnancy and individual health are not resolved by these references. Do not treat the result as a prescribed weight.
Replace the illustrative gender value (Male) with your own value, then complete the other inputs for the same scenario. Enter height using the requested system and retain the equation name when recording a result.
