Standard male height and weight chart

This is an automatically translated article.

Health professionals around the world agree that adult men who are overweight and have related health problems benefit from weight loss. Even small weight loss can improve overall health by lowering blood pressure and/or cholesterol levels. Men's weight is usually only assessed through absolute values. However, men's weight-for-height will provide more information.

1. Men's weight and health

Weight is closely related to human health. If underweight, men may need to gain weight. And this should always be taken as part of a balanced and nutritious diet. If your weight is in the acceptable range then you should maintain the correct amount of food to keep your weight within a healthy range.
Overweight? If you're overweight for your height, try to cut back on how much you're eating, especially foods and drinks that are high in fat or sugar. More physical activity, exercise, strength training is also a good solution to lose weight and maintain fitness. Many studies have demonstrated that being overweight can increase the risk of cardiovascular diseases, type II diabetes, high blood pressure, and bone and joint diseases. With the help of the internet and computers, weight loss planning can be set up quickly and personalized, tailored to each person's weight loss goals.

2. How is the standard male weight determined?

Determining the average weight value is quite simple, but determining the healthy or ideal weight is a bit more complicated. One of the most popular tools for this is the body mass index (Body Mass Index, BMI).
The absolute weight value does not have much meaning to evaluate and compare the health status of each person. Meanwhile, BMI uses a formula involving height and weight. To calculate BMI, divide your weight in kilograms by your height in meters squared. Alternatively, you can also enter this information into an online calculator.
To find out if your BMI is normal, refer to the information below:
Underweight: BMI less than 18.5; Healthy: BMI between 18.5 and 24.9; Overweight: BMI between 25 and 29.9; Obesity: BMI over 30; Although BMI does not directly measure body fat mass, its results correlate closely with the results of other methods of measuring body fat. Some of the methods used to measure body fat include:
Measurement of skin fold thickness; Density measurement, comparing the weight measured in the air with the weight measured in the water; Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), using a scale that incorporates electrodes; More resistance is associated with more body fat.

3. What is the relationship between male height and male weight?

BMI is not always a perfect tool to assess whether a man's height and weight are in a healthy or normal range. For example, even though one person may weigh more than another, one can be in much better shape because their weight relative to height is more ideal. That's because muscle makes up a higher percentage of fat, which contributes to weight gain.
Gender is also an issue to consider. Women tend to store more body fat than men. Likewise, older people tend to carry more body fat and have less muscle mass than younger people of the same height.

4. Men's standard height and weight table

The standard height and weight table below can be used as a reference to check the weight-to-height ratio in men. The unit of weight in the table is the kilogram and the unit for height in the table is the centimeter.
