Frequently Asked Questions

What is a healthy BMI range?

For most adults, a BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 is considered healthy. Under 18.5 is underweight; 25–29.9 is overweight; 30+ is obese.

Is BMI accurate for athletes?

BMI does not distinguish between muscle and fat, so it can overestimate weight issues in muscular individuals. Consult a doctor for a full assessment.

Does BMI apply to children?

BMI calculations for children and teens use age- and sex-specific percentiles, which differ from adult ranges.

Are metric and imperial results the same?

Yes — both unit systems produce the same BMI value when you enter equivalent measurements.
