The BMI (Body Mass Index) Calculator helps assess whether they are underweight, at a normal weight, overweight, or obese based on their height and weight. By entering their measurements, the calculator provides them with a BMI value and a corresponding weight category.
Users can select their height (in feet) and enter their weight (in pounds). The calculator then computes their BMI using the standard BMI formula:
BMI = (weight in pounds / (height in inches)²) * 703The calculator automatically converts their height to equivalent inches.
Score Calculation
Depending on the calculation results, the scores will be interpreted using the following:
| BMI Score | Scoring Interpretation |
Less than 18.5 | Low Skeletal Muscle Mass |
18.5 - 24.9 | Below Skeletal Adequate Muscle Mass |
25 - 29.9 | Adequate Skeletal Muscle Mass |
30 - 34.9 | Optimal Skeletal Muscle Mass |
35 or higher | Above Skeletal Optimal |
