Body Mass Index

Your weight isn't always indicative of your health and fitness level; in fact, it can be a very arbitrary number. Many experts suggest your body mass index (BMI) is much more telling because it considers your weight, height, and body type to calculate your body's weight to mass ratio. The resulting value gauges when extra pounds begin to be a health risk. You can calculate your own BMI by typing in your height, weight, sex, and waist size into the form below.
