    FAQ

    What is the Ideal Weight for 140 cm Male in kg?

    For 140 cm Male Ideal Weight: 50 kg Healthy Weight Range: 36.3 kg - 49 kg

    What is Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 140 cm Male?

    Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 140 cm Male is 36.3 kg - 49 kg.

    How is the ideal weight of 50 kg for 140 cm calculated?

    By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 50 kg for a man and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 140 cm is 55.12 inches, 0 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 50 kg. Below 5 feet the surcharge is zero and the base weight stands.

    Why do the ideal weight and the healthy range give different answers?

    They are two different models. The range 36.3 kg - 49 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 140 cm, while the ideal weight 50 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 25.51. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
