Ideal Body Weight is a medical calculation used to determine a healthy weight range based on your height and gender. We use the Hamwi Formula, a widely accepted method in clinical nutrition.
Knowing your IBW helps you set realistic fitness goals. Being significantly over or under this weight can increase risks of health issues like diabetes, hypertension, or nutritional deficiencies.
While BMI (Body Mass Index) looks at general body mass, IBW provides a specific target weight. Both are useful tools for monitoring your health.
