BMI Categories Quick Reference

The height and weight chart above uses BMI as the basis — here is a reminder of what BMI category each weight range corresponds to.

BMI Categories — WHO and CDC Guidelines
Category BMI Range Health Risk
Underweight Below 18.5 Increased risk — nutritional deficiency and bone loss
Normal weight Healthy 18.5 to 24.9 Low risk
Overweight 25.0 to 29.9 Increased risk of metabolic disease
Obese Class I 30.0 to 34.9 High risk
Obese Class II 35.0 to 39.9 Very high risk
Obese Class III 40.0 and above Extremely high risk

Frequently Asked Questions

At 5 feet 6 inches (167.6 cm) the healthy BMI weight range is approximately 118 to 155 lbs (53 to 70 kg). The midpoint of this range is approximately 136 lbs.
At 6 feet (182.9 cm) the healthy BMI range is approximately 140 to 183 lbs (64 to 83 kg). Athletes with high muscle mass may be above this range while still having healthy body composition.
Use the height and weight chart above to find the healthy range for your height based on BMI 18.5 to 24.9. For a more complete picture also measure your waist circumference — above 40 inches for men or 35 inches for women indicates elevated health risk regardless of BMI.
The average US adult woman regardless of height weighs approximately 170 lbs. However the healthy weight range specifically for 5 feet 4 inches is 110 to 145 lbs based on BMI 18.5 to 24.9.
Yes — the healthy weight range scales with height. A taller person has a larger frame and more lean mass and therefore a higher healthy weight range.
A BMI of 30.0 and above is classified as Obese. At 5 feet 6 inches this begins at approximately 186 lbs.
Neither alone is sufficient. BMI is calculated from height and weight but cannot distinguish muscle from fat. Waist circumference, body fat percentage measured by DEXA, and metabolic markers give a more complete health picture alongside BMI.
Average weight for a 14-year-old varies widely by height, sex, and pubertal stage. The CDC average is approximately 52 kg (115 lbs) for both boys and girls at age 14 but the healthy range for children uses BMI-for-age percentiles rather than absolute weight targets.
