How To Calculate Body Mass Index (BMI)
To calculate your Body Mass Index (BMI), you can use the following specific formula, that only takes into account your height and weight.

BMI = (your weight in pounds * 703) / (height in inches * height in inches)

However, to be honest, I hate the BMI index. Before sharing why I don’t like using the BMI index, let me first show you an example of how to calculate your BMI, using my height and weight.

My Height: 5 feet 11 inches tall (71 inches)
My Weight: 175 pounds

Based on my height and weight measurements, my BMI would be calculated as follows:
BMI = (175 pounds * 703) / (71 inches * 71 inches) = 24.4 BMI

According to this BMI calculation, and the BMI chart levels listed below, I would be considered just inside the high end of an ideal body weight.

BMI Chart Levels For Men And Women:
Under 18.5: Underweight
18.5-24.9: Normal
25-29.9: Overweight
30-39.9: Obese
40+: Extremely Obese

However, if I added another 15 pounds of lean muscle, which isn’t out of the question, my BMI score would be calculated as:

BMI = (190 pounds * 703) / (71 inches * 71 inches) = 26.5 BMI

According to the BMI, I would be overweight if I added another 15 pounds of lean muscle.

This is the main problem with the BMI calculation. BMI does not decipher between lean body mass and stored body fat.

In my opinion, calculating your body fat percentage is a better calculation for your ideal body weight.
