Health experts agree that there is a certain height to weight ratio that is generally associated with healthy individuals. Though some variation is found within individuals linked to bone structure and body types, the charts found below can serve as a baseline to see where you fall in the height to weight ratio.
If you are on the low end, you might not be eating enough, whereas if you are on the high end, you might be eating too much. In both cases, you are putting yourself at risk for serious medical problems and complications. Again, these are general guidelines, and in no way replace the evaluation or assessment done by a certified health professional.
Off The Grid Fitness can help you achieve your healthy target weight.
