Body & Weight

Ideal Body Weight is a statistical target range derived from historical clinical studies of height and mortality rates.

Your body type (hourglass, pear, rectangle, etc.) is determined by the proportions of your bust, waist, and hip circumferences.

Body Surface Area (BSA) measures the total surface area of the human body. It is widely used in clinical medicine to dose drugs.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is a simple, internationally recognized screening parameter used to estimate biological body fat based on a person’s height and weight. It is widely used by clinicians to evaluate body weight categories for adults.

Unlike BMI, body fat calculations tell you exactly what percentage of your weight comes from fat versus lean muscle tissue.
