     Did

    you

    know you had a BMI? Body mass index is a


    calculation that uses your height and weight to
    estimate how much body fat you have.
     Body Mass Index (BMI) can be used to
    indicate if you are overweight, obese,
    underweight or normal.
    CATEGORY BMI RANGE
    Severely underweight
    less than 16.0
    Underweight
    from 16.0 to 20.0
    Normal
    from 20 to 25
    Overweight
    from 25 to 30

    Obese Class I from 30 to 35


    Obese Class II
    from 35 to 40
    Obese Class III
    from 35 to 40
     Is a physical test that measures the proportion of
    level of fat in the body.
     Usually, a body fat meter is a tool used to
    measure the percentage of a person’s body that
    is made up of fat.
     A body fat meter can give an indication as to
    whether the person is leading an all-around
    healthy lifestyle or if changes in diet or exercise
    are recommended.
     Body fat meters are also useful for tracking a
    person’s progress when he or she is on a diet or
    exercise regimen. Testing body fat percentage
    regularly can keep the person on track for that
    target weight.
     Most meters are small and portable, so they can
    be used easily at home or taken just as
    conveniently to a gym. They are easy to use and
    provide a reading in seconds. Most meters
    provide readings to the tenth of a percentage.
     The first time a body fat meter is used, the
    person should put in information such as age,
    sex, height and weight. This information is then
    stored in the meter and referenced when the
    percentage is calculated. The reading is typically
    displayed in LCD format, and some meters
    provide a picture of how the percentage
    of body fat relates to the person’s size and
    figure.
     Normal body fat measurements are generally

    considered to be 18-30% for women and 15-


    25% for men.
