BMI: Body Mass Index

Your weight might also have an influence on the health of your legs. Remember that your legs carry you everywhere, so a few extra kilos might make quite a big difference when it comes to the impact on your legs.

The Body Mass Index calculator can help you to assess your weight. It has been defined by the World Health Organisation and puts two variables into relation: weight and height according to the formula. BMI = weight / (height)²

Find your weight status within the following table:

BMI   Weight Status
Below 18.5   Underweight
18.5 – 24.9   Normal
25.0 – 29.9   Overweight
30.0 and Above   Obese
