Adjust Your Numbers
Change your height or weight to see how your BMI changes.
Understanding Your BMI
A BMI below 18.5 may indicate nutritional insufficiency. According to the CDC, this range is associated with increased risk of bone density loss and immune function decline. Consulting a healthcare provider is recommended for a thorough nutritional assessment.
What This Means for Your Height
For men over 6ft, BMI may overestimate body fat due to higher muscle mass. Consider waist circumference and body fat percentage for a more accurate assessment.
Weight & Threshold
Gaining approximately 31.1 lbs would bring your BMI to 18.5, the start of the next category.
⬆️ Gaining approximately 31.1 lbs would put you in the Normal BMI range.
Waist & Health
The CDC recommends that men keep waist circumference below 40 inches. A waist-to-height ratio below 0.5 is also associated with lower health risks.
Age Context
For children and teenagers (under 18), BMI is interpreted differently. Unlike adults, BMI for youth is age- and sex-specific, using percentiles from CDC growth charts. For a 16-year-old boy at 6ft 7in and 133lbs, a BMI of 15.0 would be evaluated using pediatric growth percentiles rather than the adult underweight category.
