Standard Weight Chart
Standard weight chart measurements are categorized according to different frame sizes for both women and men. These weight charts are based on statistical averages that had the lowest mortality rate calculated by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. They are not absolutes, and should not be taken as medical advice. For example, if you are pregnant or very muscular the weight chart will not be accurate.

Directions to measure elbow: Bend your elbow 90 degrees with the forearm parallel to your body. Turn the inside of your wrist to face the body. Place your thumb and index finger on the two prominent bones on the sides of your elbow; then transfer the distance to a tape measure or ruler.
Note on weight chart: Again, we stress that it is important to use this weight chart tool as an educational guide rather than an absolute. If you live a healthy lifestyle and are feeling great overall then you don't need to be concerned about these weight ranges. Use good sense in determining whether losing a few pounds or gaining a few pounds through proper nutrition and exercise will improve your health.
