Cuánto Debo Pesar Calculadora

Determine your ideal weight based on height, age, and sex using this calculator. The results provide a general guideline for healthy weight ranges, but individual factors like muscle mass and body composition may affect your actual weight.

How to use this calculator

To calculate your ideal weight:

Enter your height in centimeters
Enter your age in years
Select your sex (male or female)
Click "Calculate" to see your results

The calculator uses standard formulas for healthy weight ranges based on height and sex. For more accurate results, consider consulting with a healthcare professional.

Formula used

The calculator uses the following formulas to determine your ideal weight range:

For males: Ideal weight = (Height in cm - 100) - [(Age - 20) / 10]

For females: Ideal weight = (Height in cm - 100) - [(Age - 20) / 10] × 0.9

These formulas provide a general guideline for healthy weight ranges. The results should be used as a reference and not as a definitive measure of health.

Interpreting your results

The calculator provides three values:

Minimum ideal weight: The lowest recommended weight for your height and age
Maximum ideal weight: The highest recommended weight for your height and age
Average ideal weight: The midpoint between the minimum and maximum values

If your current weight falls within the recommended range, it suggests you're at a healthy weight for your height. If you're significantly below or above the range, you may want to consult with a healthcare professional for personalized advice.

Examples

Let's look at two examples to see how the calculator works:

Example 1: Male, 180 cm, 30 years old

Using the male formula:

Ideal weight = (180 - 100) - [(30 - 20) / 10] = 80 - 1 = 79 kg

This means the calculator recommends a weight of 79 kg for this individual. The range would typically be calculated as ±10% of this value, giving a range of approximately 71.1 kg to 86.9 kg.

Example 2: Female, 165 cm, 25 years old

Using the female formula:

Ideal weight = (165 - 100) - [(25 - 20) / 10] × 0.9 = 65 - 0.5 × 0.9 = 65 - 0.45 = 64.55 kg

For this individual, the calculator recommends a weight of approximately 64.55 kg. The range would typically be calculated as ±10% of this value, giving a range of approximately 58.09 kg to 71.01 kg.
