How To Determine Your Ideal Weight

A commonly used formula for determining ideal body weight follows:

Women: Approximately ninety-five pounds for the first five feet of height and
then four pounds for every inch thereafter.

Men: Approximately 105 pounds for the first five feet of height and then five
pounds for every inch thereafter. Therefore, a 5'10" male should weight approximately
155 pounds.
All formulas that approximate ideal weights are only rough guides, since we all have different body types and bone structure.
