Your ideal weight depends more on your height and body composition than age alone. Age can slightly affect metabolism, but doctors mainly use BMI (Body Mass Index) to estimate a healthy range.
📊 Healthy weight based on height (adult BMI 18.5–24.9)
Here’s a simple guide:
👤 Height → Healthy weight range
- 5’0″ (152 cm) → 45–57 kg
- 5’2″ (157 cm) → 48–61 kg
- 5’4″ (162 cm) → 51–65 kg
- 5’6″ (167 cm) → 53–68 kg
- 5’8″ (172 cm) → 56–72 kg
- 5’10” (178 cm) → 60–77 kg
- 6’0″ (183 cm) → 63–81 kg
🧠 How BMI works
- Below 18.5 → Underweight
- 18.5–24.9 → Healthy range
- 25–29.9 → Overweight
- 30+ → Obese
⚠️ Important notes
- Muscle weighs more than fat (athletes may weigh more but still be healthy)
- Waist size and fitness matter just as much as weight
- Teens and children have different charts than adults
