Healthy weight


What is a healthy weight?
A straightforward question.........without a straightforward answer!
People have different body types so there is no single weight that’s right for everyone. Even if your mate is the same age and height as you they probably won't weigh the same because some people are more muscular or more developed than others. And before you jump to the conclusion that if you weigh more you must be unhealthy, just remember that muscle weighs more than fat! It’s all about learning what’s right for your body type.

It is possible to find out if you are a healthy weight for your height and age by using a Body Mass Index (BMI) percentile calculator.
