BMI Body Mass Index • A measure that allows you to access your body size, taking your height and weight into account
Body Mass Index Equation • Step # 1: Multiply your weight by 703. Write down that number. (ex. 125 lbs x 703 = 87875) • Step # 2: Next multiply your height in inches x itself. Write down that number. (12 in.= 1 ft.) (ex. 65in x 65 in = 4225) • Finally divide step #1 by step #2 (ex 87875 / 4225 = 20.79) Normal BMI Your BMI tells you if your weight is in proportion to your height
