Weight is related to height and body composition (rather than just age).
So, there is no predetermined answer about what you should weigh. In fact, body weight is a misleading measure. Since people have different builds, 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. The reason for this is that muscle weighs more than fat.
Therefore, what counts more than your body weightis your percentage of body fat.
- If you are an adult female, your percentage of body fat should be about 15 to 20% for good health.
- For adult males the 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.
