What is a standard chart?
The standard figure table is a body shape assessment tool based on body mass index (BMI). Body mass index (BMI) is an index used to measure whether the weight is within the healthy range. It is calculated according to the ratio of height to weight.
Calculation method of body mass index
The calculation method of body mass index is very simple, just divide the weight (kg) by the square of the height (m). For example, if a person is1.75m tall and weighs 70kg, then his body mass index is:
70÷( 1.75× 1.75)=22.86

-28≤ Body Mass Index
-30≤ body mass index
-Body mass index ≥35: severe obesity.
