To calculate your body mass index, you want to figure out your weight in kilograms. You're
going to take that and divide it by your height, you're going to figure out your height in
meters. That's going to give you your BMI. So a very safe range for BMI is anything between
nineteen and twenty-five percent. Anything below nineteen is considered underweight.
Anything above twenty-five is considered over weight, also going into the latter end of
obesity.
If using that equation is way too complicated for you, you can go to various websites on
the internet, you're going to press in BMI, they're going to come up with a calculator
and they're going to help you get through it. You're just going to punch in your height
and your weight, and they'll figure it out for you automatically. So basically your body
mass index is figured up from your height and your weight, and how much of that is body
fat.
