What is the appropriate weight for a boy aged 180cm?

When boys reach a height of 180cm, they will pay great attention to their weight. They always want to control the changes in weight and avoid any distortion of their figure. Then they must improve it through exercise and diet, so that their weight will not change so fast. In addition, when the weight changes too fast, it will also have an impact on health. People must know how to restrain their weight.

There are 4 types of therapies available in weight control programs: diet and nutritional counseling, behavioral therapy, medications, and surgery. Diet is now rarely based on traditional diet therapy ； Instead, emphasize changing long-term habits. Most programs teach customers how to eat safely, wisely and gradually. Changes include increasing the intake of complex carbohydrates (fruits, vegetables, breads, cereals, pasta products) and decreasing the intake of fats and simple carbohydrates. Very low-energy diets providing 400 to 800 kcal per day have become less popular because it is apparent that patients regain their weight quickly.

Adult BMI Act

Body mass index = weight (kg) divided by height (meters) squared kg/m2

Normal weight: Body mass index = 18-25

Overweight: Body mass index = 25-30

Mild obesity: body mass index >30

Moderate obesity: body mass index >35

Severe obesity: body mass index >40

Standard weight for children and adolescents

Standard weight = age x 2 + 8 (3-7 years old)

Standard weight = age x 3 + 10 (7-16 years old)

Mild obesity: 20%-30% over standard body weight

Moderate obesity: 40%-50% over standard body weight

Severe obesity: more than 50% over standard body weight

Normal Overweight Mild Obesity Moderate Obesity Severe Obesity

Several other calculation methods

①Adult: (height (cm)-100) × 0.9 = standard weight (kg)

②Male: Height (cm)-105=standard weight (kg)

Women: Height (cm)-100=standard weight (kg)

The above two calculation methods have basically been widely used.

In addition, the Academy of Military Science also introduced a method to calculate the ideal weight of Chinese people:

The ideal weight for northerners = (height cm-150) × 0.6 + 50 (kg)

The ideal weight for southerners = (height in cm-150) × 0.6 + 48 (kg)

This calculation method seems to be more suitable for Chinese people in the northern and southern regions.

The simple way to calculate the standard weight of children is:

1 to 6 months

Birth weight (kg) + age in months × 0.6 = standard weight (kg)

7 to 12 months

Birth weight (kg) + age in months × 0.5 = standard weight (kg)

Over 1 year old: 8+age×2=standard weight (kg)
