    Weight standard is one of the key indicators that reflects and considers a person's physical condition. Being too fat or too thin is not good for physical and mental health, and it is not easy for people to feel healthy. A large number of statistical data of different body types are shown to reflect ideal and simple indicators of normal weight. Height and weight for men can be used: (height in cm - 80) Specific 70% = weight standard

    Women: (Height cm - 70) Specific 60﹪ = Weight standard

    The weight standard plus and minus 10% is a normal weight

    If the weight standard is between 10% and 20%, the weight is too heavy or too light.

    If the weight standard is more than 20% positive or negative, it means obesity or insufficient weight.

    Overload calculation method

    Overload% = [(specific weight - ideal weight) / (ideal weight)] Specific 100%

    Optimization algorithm for different weight standards and age

    weight standard method

    Weight standard (Kg) = age x 88 (7-16 years old)

    Mild obesity: 20%-30% over weight standard

    Mild to moderate obesity: 30%-50% above body weight standard

    Moderate to severe obesity: more than 50% above the body weight standard

    BMI method

    Body mass index (BMI) = weight (Kg) / height (meters) in square meters, that is, kg/m2

    BMI value for age

    Normal age, overload, mild obesity, mild to moderate obesity, moderate to severe obesity
