Ideal Weight Calculator

Ideal Weight Calculator

Calculate your ideal body weight using the most popular medical formulas.


Ideal Weight Calculator

The Atlasaro Ideal Weight Calculator estimates your healthy body weight using four of the most widely recognized medical formulas.

Instead of providing a single number, our calculator compares multiple scientific methods to give a more realistic estimate of your ideal weight.

The calculator is useful for adults who want to understand what weight range is generally considered healthy based on height and gender.


What Is Ideal Body Weight?

Ideal Body Weight (IBW) is an estimate of the healthiest body weight for a person based primarily on height and gender.

Doctors and healthcare professionals often use IBW when:

  • estimating medication dosages
  • evaluating nutritional status
  • planning weight-loss programs
  • assessing general health

Keep in mind that ideal weight is only an estimate and should not replace professional medical advice.


How to Use

Using the calculator takes less than a minute.

Step 1

Select your gender.

Step 2

Enter your height in centimeters.

Step 3

Click Calculate Ideal Weight.

The calculator instantly calculates your ideal weight using four different medical formulas.


Formulas Used

Our calculator uses four internationally recognized formulas.


Devine Formula

Originally developed for calculating medication dosages.

Often considered the classic Ideal Weight formula.


Robinson Formula

An updated version of the Devine Formula.

Many healthcare professionals consider it more accurate for modern populations.


Miller Formula

Provides a slightly lower estimate than Devine for many people.


Hamwi Formula

One of the oldest formulas still widely used in nutrition.


Which Formula Is Best?

There is no single "best" formula.

Each was developed using different research and populations.

Most healthy adults will notice that all four formulas produce very similar results.

Using multiple formulas provides a better overall estimate than relying on only one.


Important Notes

Ideal Body Weight should not be confused with:

  • BMI
  • Body Fat Percentage
  • Lean Body Mass

People with high muscle mass may naturally weigh more than their calculated ideal weight.

Athletes should not rely solely on Ideal Weight calculations.
