How do you calculate your frame size to obtain an accurate BMI calculation?

Q. Also, does anyone know the site with the best BMI calculator - including a calculator that considers half inch height measurements?

A. I like this one. But you do HAVE to hit calculate BMI or else it won't work. I just did mine at 5'8.5" and it didn't have an issue with it.

http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/?htf=5&hti=8.5&wt=260&bmi=

This one is the one from the CDC (Center for Disease Control). If anyone is gonna have a good BMI calculator the CDC is. The links have one for kids/teens and adults. Again, did mine for 5'8.5" and it worked no issue.

What exactly does your BMI indicate, and is it something to use as a guideline to weightloss?

Q. When dieting, and what have you, how important is your BMI number, and is a good indication of much weight you need to loose?

A. BMI is Body Mass Index and it is nothing more than statistics based on averages. BMI is only a small indicator, body fat % and water % are much more important.

BMI does not take into account the three different body types which is a very big flaw in the system.

For example a very muscular people can have a bad BMI while their body fat might be below 15%.

I am not a big fan of BMI, but it is a place to start.

How to drop my BMI but not appear as a stick?

Q. I am currently 5'8 149pds. And lately i've been dieting well and working out every other day. I am trying to create a lean muscle definition and get my abs to show but I am starting to feel and look to scrawny? Any tips to help me drop my bmi to about 9% but not in the end weigh only like 120pds????

Currrently my bmi is 19.2%
And I weigh 149 pds.

A. It seems to me that you want to be somewhat muscular and lean, but for your own sake you need to clearly define your ultimate goal.

The only way to look more ripped is to lose fat and add some muscle. Get out of the mind set of BMI and numbers on the scale. There are plenty of resources you can research about improving your diet and providing structure for workouts depending on what you want to look like.

Can a BMI calculator tell the difference between muscle and fat?

Q. I'm a naturally thin person (I'm 5'5" and normally about 100 lbs.), but I'm also very athletic. During the cross country season I'm often 108-110 lbs. because muscle weighs more than fat. Whenever I calculate my BMI it says that I have a higher percentage of body fat when I'm more in shape, even though I know this is not accurate. Is there a BMI calculator available that can distinguish between fat and muscle?

A. Nope BMI does not measure body fat percentage, it's merely a comparison of height and weight and takes no account of frame size, muscle mass, etc.

The only way to get an accurate body fat reading is by DEXA, hydrostatic weighing or body fat callipers.

Original Question

Is your BMI the amount of calories you burn just being alive?

Q. I feel rather stupid for asking that, but I am not sure. Is that why you must eat that amount of calories to maintain your weight?

A. No, the BMR- the basal metabolic rate- is the number of calories you burn to maintain your body's functions. To find out how many calories you must eat to maintain your weight, you multiply your BMR by the number that represents your activity level. If you are not active at all, you multiply your BMR by 1.2. And increase the factor depending on your activity.

What is the perfect bmi to look slim and healthy?

Q. Or skinny. My bmi is 20.8 (i know, kinda chubby) but what is the slim, healthy bmi ?

A. I think that your BMI is perfect!!
18.5 - 24.9 is considered healthy... so stay where you are! :)
If you think you look chubby then just try to tone your muscle instead of trying to lose weight.
My BMI is 17.2 and even though it says im underweight i am still healthy. So stay around the upper teens and the lower twentys and you should look amazing! :)

Q. Also, does anyone know the site with the best BMI calculator - including a calculator that considers half inch height measurements?

A. I like this one. But you do HAVE to hit calculate BMI or else it won't work. I just did mine at 5'8.5" and it didn't have an issue with it.

http://www.nhlbisupport.com/bmi/?htf=5&hti=8.5&wt=260&bmi=

This one is the one from the CDC (Center for Disease Control). If anyone is gonna have a good BMI calculator the CDC is. The links have one for kids/teens and adults. Again, did mine for 5'8.5" and it worked no issue.

I hope that helps.

Can a BMI calculator tell the difference between muscle and fat?

Q. I'm a naturally thin person (I'm 5'5" and normally about 100 lbs.), but I'm also very athletic. During the cross country season I'm often 108-110 lbs. because muscle weighs more than fat. Whenever I calculate my BMI it says that I have a higher percentage of body fat when I'm more in shape, even though I know this is not accurate. Is there a BMI calculator available that can distinguish between fat and muscle?

A. Nope BMI does not measure body fat percentage, it's merely a comparison of height and weight and takes no account of frame size, muscle mass, etc.

The only way to get an accurate body fat reading is by DEXA, hydrostatic weighing or body fat callipers.

Original Question

Is your BMI the amount of calories you burn just being alive?

Q. I feel rather stupid for asking that, but I am not sure. Is that why you must eat that amount of calories to maintain your weight?

A. No, the BMR- the basal metabolic rate- is the number of calories you burn to maintain your body's functions. To find out how many calories you must eat to maintain your weight, you multiply your BMR by the number that represents your activity level. If you are not active at all, you multiply your BMR by 1.2. And increase the factor depending on your activity.
