The following table is a guide to a healthy weight range
for each height and gender. The table does not take into consideration your
age or your frame size. A person with a petite physique (small frame) should aim for an
ideal weight at the lower end of the range and a person of the same height but
with a large frame could quite satisfactorily weigh in at the top of the
range.
