BMI Calculator
A BMI calculator helps determines a person's body mass index. This section of the eMedTV library provides a BMI calculator that you can use to figure out your body mass index, as well as information to help you interpret your results.
BMI Chart
A BMI chart allows you to find your body mass index without using the BMI formula. This eMedTV resource explains how this chart works. It also includes a BMI chart and information to help you understand your results.
BMI Chart for Women
As explained in this eMedTV resource, there is no special BMI chart for women; it is the same measurement tool used by men. A BMI chart for women will work equally well for men.
BMI for Athletes
Using BMI for athletes may not result in an accurate assessment of body fat. As this eMedTV page explains, BMI may overestimate the level of body fat in athletes. This article looks at other ways of assessing athletes' body fat.
