Ideal Body Weight Table

Everyone of us have different ideal weight. We desire the weight that we dream of. There are numerous factor that we need to consider before finding out the Ideal Weight. One of the most important is our muscle mass.

The Ideal Body Weight is for those whose Body Mass Index (BMI) to fall into between the range of 19 to 24.9. A BMI 30 to 35 is considered obese or overweight. Anything beyond that range is considered seriously overweight and is a potential at health risk. However by just taking BMI alone to calculate body mass is not always accurate.

Muscle mass can be the critical point to determine whether a person is overweight or otherwise. A person can be lean but considered overweight due to the fact that he doesn't have much muscle but showing the upper range of normal BMI. On the other hand a person could have a BMI of 32 and yet considered not obese due to the fact that he is muscular.
