Frequently Asked Questions
Ideal weight depends on height, gender, frame size, and muscle mass. As a rough guide, a medium-frame 5'10" man's ideal weight is approximately 155-170 lbs. A medium-frame 5'5" woman's ideal weight is approximately 125-140 lbs.
No single formula is perfect. The Devine formula is most widely used in clinical settings for drug dosing. The BMI-based range (18.5-24.9) gives the broadest healthy range. Use the average of all formulas for a reasonable target.
Large-framed individuals naturally weigh more due to bigger bones and larger body structure. Frame size adjustments add 10% for large frames and subtract 10% for small frames. Measure your wrist circumference to determine frame size.
