* People have different builds and different people of the same height and sex can have the same percentage of body fat and yet have different body weights. What is important is body composition. Muscle weighs more than fat. What counts more than your body weight is your percentage of body fat. As a male, your percentage of body fat should be about 10 to 15% for good health. To determine your percentage of body fat at home, obtain some plastic body fat calipers and do a simple skin-fold test. Body fat calipers are not expensive and they are readily available to buy.

* The ideal weight for a man who is exactly 5 feet tall is 106 pounds. For every additional inch above 5 feet, add 6 pounds. To determine whether you have a small, medium or large frame, measure your wrist. If your wrist measures exactly 7 inches, you have a medium frame and you do not need to adjust your ideal weight. If your wrist is smaller than 7 inches, you have a small frame and should subtract 10 percent from your ideal weight. If your wrist is larger than 7 inches, you have a small frame and should add 10 percent to your ideal weight. * For a male I would say about any where from 145-175 would be the healthiest.
