    FAQ

    What is the Ideal Weight for 153 cm Male in kg?

    For 153 cm Male Ideal Weight: 50.5 kg Healthy Weight Range: 43.3 kg - 58.5 kg

    What is Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 153 cm Male?

    Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 153 cm Male is 43.3 kg - 58.5 kg.

    How is the ideal weight of 50.5 kg for 153 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. 153 cm is 60.24 inches, 0.24 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 50.5 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 43.3 kg - 58.5 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 153 cm, while the ideal weight 50.5 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 21.59. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
