Use Calcuron’s free BMI calculator to estimate your Body Mass Index (BMI) using height in feet and inches and weight in pounds. The result is calculated using the standard adult BMI formula and classification ranges.
Enter your height and weight below, then select “Calculate BMI” to see your estimated Body Mass Index and category. This calculator is intended for adults and does not replace medical advice.
Even though you enter height in feet/inches and weight in pounds, the calculation is performed using the standard metric BMI formula:
BMI = weight(kg) ÷ [height(m)]²
where:
height(m) = total inches × 0.0254
weight(kg) = pounds × 0.45359237
BMI is a rough screening tool, not a diagnosis. It does not directly measure body fat and may be less accurate for athletes, very muscular individuals, older adults, or people with certain health conditions.
For personal health decisions, always consider talking with a healthcare professional who can interpret BMI along with other factors such as waist circumference, blood pressure, labs, and medical history.
