What Is BMI?

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a screening measure based on height and weight. It can help indicate whether weight falls within a commonly used range, but it does not directly measure body fat.

CategoryBMI range
UnderweightBelow 18.5
Normal weight18.5 – 24.9
Overweight25.0 – 29.9
Obese30.0 and above

BMI Formulas

Metric BMI = weight (kg) / height (m)²
Imperial BMI = (weight (lb) × 703) / height (in)²

Limitations of BMI

BMI is useful for screening, but it does not account for muscle mass, bone density, age, or body composition. For additional context, you can also use our Body Fat Calculator.
