What is the formula for calculating ideal body weight?

We average four evidence-based formulas widely used in 21st-century clinical nutrition and pharmacology. Where a formula provides separate constants for women and men we apply the appropriate version.

  • Devine (1974) – 45.5 + 2.3×(in − 60) = 45.5 + 2.3×(73.2 − 60) = 75.9 kg
  • Robinson (1983) – 49 + 1.7×(in − 60) = 49 + 1.9×(73.2 − 60) = 74.1 kg
  • Miller (1983) – 53.1 + 1.36×(in − 60) = 53.1 + 1.36×(73.2 − 60) = 71.1 kg
  • BMI-22 target – 22 × H² /10 000 = 22 ×(1.86)² = 76.1 kg
  • Average = (75.9 + 71.5 + 71.1 + 76.1) / 4 = 73.7 kg

In these formulas in means your height in inches: 186 cm ÷ 2.54 = 73.2 in
