For 5'11" Male Ideal Weight: 75.3 kg (166 lbs) Healthy Weight Range: 60.2 kg - 81.2 kg (132.7 lbs - 179.2 lbs)
What is the normal/healthy weight range for 5'11" male?

How is the ideal weight of 75.3 kg for 5'11" calculated?
By the Devine formula (1974): 50 kg for a man plus 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 5'11" is 71 inches, 11 of them above 60, so 50 + 2.3 × 11 = 75.3 kg (166 lbs). Below 5 feet (60 inches) this calculator sets the surcharge to zero and keeps the base weight.
Why do the ideal weight and the healthy range give different answers?
They are two different models. The range 60.2 kg - 81.2 kg is the band 18.5 ≤ BMI < 25 applied to 5'11", while the ideal weight 75.3 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 23.15. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
