    FAQ

    What is the Ideal Weight for 170 cm Female in kg?

    For 170 cm Female Ideal Weight: 61.4 kg Healthy Weight Range: 53.5 kg - 72.2 kg

    What is Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 170 cm Female?

    Normal/Healthy Weight Range for 170 cm Female is 53.5 kg - 72.2 kg.

    How is the ideal weight of 61.4 kg for 170 cm calculated?

    By the Devine formula (1974): it starts from 45.5 kg for a woman and adds 2.3 kg for every inch above 5 feet. 170 cm is 66.93 inches, 6.93 of them above the 60-inch mark, which gives 61.4 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 53.5 kg - 72.2 kg is the BMI band 18.5-24.9 applied to 170 cm, while the ideal weight 61.4 kg is a single point from the Devine formula and corresponds to a BMI of 21.26. The formula knows nothing about age, frame size or muscle, so its point need not sit in the middle of the range.
