Anthropometric Measurements

  • BMI is calculated using your weight and height.
  • The measurement of BMI for children differs from adults.
  • It is a calculation of weight in Kilograms divided by height in metres squared.
BMI (kg/m2)=  weight (kg) / [height (m) X height(m)]

By substituting the maximum BMI value according to your age into this formula, you can calculate your maximum weight.
