How the Maxpro BMI Calculator Works

The Body Mass Index (BMI) Calculator on Maxpro is a reliable tool designed to help you evaluate whether your weight is within a healthy range based on your height. It uses a simple mathematical formula to calculate BMI and provide meaningful insights about your body weight status.

Formula:

BMI = Weight (kg) / [Height (m)²]

This means your weight in kilograms is divided by the square of your height in meters. For example, if you weigh 70 kg and your height is 1.75 meters, the calculation would look like this:

BMI = 70 / (1.75 × 1.75) = 22.86

The result, 22.86, falls within the "Healthy Weight" range.

How to Use the Calculator:

• Input Your Weight: Enter your weight in kilograms.
• Input Your Height: Enter your height in meters.
• Get Instant Results: The calculator will instantly display your BMI value along with the corresponding category.

BMI Categories:

• Underweight: Less than 18.5
• Healthy Weight: Between 18.5 and 24.9
• Overweight: Between 25 and 29.9
• Obese: 30 and above

These categories help you understand where you stand in terms of weight and its potential impact on your health.

Why Use the BMI Calculator?

• Health Awareness: Knowing your BMI helps you understand potential risks associated with being underweight or overweight, such as malnutrition, heart disease, or diabetes.
• Goal Setting: It can guide you in setting realistic fitness and dietary goals.
• Tracking Progress: Use the calculator periodically to monitor changes in your BMI as you work toward your health goals.

While BMI is a useful starting point, it doesn’t account for factors such as muscle mass, bone density, or fat distribution. For a more comprehensive understanding of your health, consider consulting a healthcare professional.
