How to Calculate Standard Weight

Several organizations have come together and created a chart known as a standard weight chart. The standard weight chart looks at your height and age and computes a weight that is average for people of that age and weight. The chart also looks at if the person is a male or female, so it is important to look under the proper charts. With this knowledge, you can see how you compare to other people with similar builds as you.
