BMI is a broad screening tool that correlates with body fat for most adults, but it does not directly measure fat distribution or muscle mass. Pair it with waist circumference, body composition tests, and medical labs.

Checking every few months is adequate unless you are actively undergoing weight management or medical guidance. Focus on trends rather than single readings.

Athletes and lifters may have higher BMIs due to muscle. Use additional measurements such as DEXA, calipers, or InBody scans, and discuss results with a healthcare professional.

Children and teens require age- and sex-specific BMI percentiles (CDC/WHO growth charts). This calculator is intended for adults age 18+.

Waist circumference complements BMI by identifying abdominal fat and cardiometabolic risk. Combine both metrics for a fuller picture.
