Devine gives 50 kg for men and 45.5 kg for women at 5 feet (152.4 cm), plus 2.3 kg for every extra inch of height. At 170 cm, that is about 65.9 kg for a man and 61.4 kg for a woman. It is only a rough guide.
The tool also shows the weight range that matches a BMI of 18.5 to 24.9 for your height. At 170 cm it is about 53.5 to 72.0 kg. This range is wider and often more practical than one single ideal number. It is general information, not medical advice.
They use different methods. Devine is a 1970s formula built on height and sex, while the BMI range is a broad band of weights considered healthy for a height. A person can be within the BMI range and still differ from the Devine number without any concern.
The formulas here use only height and sex. They ignore age, frame size, bone density and muscle mass, so an athlete or a person with a large frame may be healthy well above the figure. Use it as a rough reference and consult a doctor for your own target.
Heights from 100 to 250 cm. For people under 5 feet, the Devine formula here does not go below its base value, which is 50 kg for men and 45.5 kg for women. Enter height in centimetres; the result is also shown in pounds.
Not necessarily. Ideal weight formulas describe a statistical reference, not a personal target. A safe goal depends on your health, body composition and history, so discuss it with a doctor or registered dietitian rather than treating a formula as a prescription.
